F1 Interview: Jerry Bruckheimer on Making More Top Gun Movie Magic with Joseph Kosinski
56In the brilliant Top Gun: Maverick, director Joseph Kosinski carves a legacy sequel worthy of matching its beloved predecessor, with breathtaking action sequences matched by touching emotional beats. However, Kosinski didn't do this alone, with his challenges halved and his talent doubled alongside producer Jerry Bruckheimer. With the likes of Flashdance, Armageddon, Pirates of the Caribbean, and National Treasure in his back catalog, Bruckheimer made for the perfect accompaniment to Kosinski's vision.
Three years on from the massive success of Top Gun: Maverick, Bruckheimer and Kosinski are back together for F1, the Apple-funded blockbuster that follows Brad Pitt's once-iconic race car driver Sonny Hayes, who lost his confidence in a tragic accident on the track. Many years later, he is finally offered the chance at redemption. The film packs eye-popping visuals with an authentic racing-based viewing experience, with Bruckheimer even noting that audiences will feel "immersed during the races" and "emotionally immersed with these characters as they go through this journey."
In light of the movie's impressive Rotten Tomatoes score and Collider's Ross Bonaime calling it "one of the best racing movies ever," Perri Nemiroff sat with Bruckheimer to discuss all things F1, including the process of making a "real movie," working with Kosinski again, the unsung heroes of the production, and much more.
