F1 movie hype is on the rise. The unnamed multi-million dollar Apple project made headlines when the British GP showcased Brad Pitt and Co. filming important on-track scenes. The filming scenes saw the movie crew set up their own garage and even fielded two cars under the “APEX GP” logo on the Silverstone track. This created a lot of excitement among the entire F1 community, including the drivers and the teams. However, for the fans, there was a bit more excitement. British actor Tom Holland made some comments about the Lewis Hamilton-produced movie, which hints at his involvement as well.

The Brit is infamously known for spilling the beans. In fact, he was reprimanded multiple times for accidentally giving out spoilers of the Avengers movies. In fact, after a few incidents, Holland was always accompanied by fellow actors to keep him tight-lipped. However, Holland was free now, and with no supervision, he spilled the tea again. As reported by Si.com, the Brit made a comment which has got the fans wondering.

The Brit made a trip to the track during the Monaco GP weekend. He was in the limelight throughout the weekend as he explored the track and pledged his allegiance to Hamilton. However, his limited time around the paddock gave the media plenty to talk about. This is exactly why while speaking to the media, Holland almost slipped up and gave the fans plenty to think about. “I love Formula One, I actually… No, I can’t talk about that,” he said.

This admission has made a lot of fans speculate about his involvement in the F1 movie. The assessment won’t be too far from accuracy as well. After all, Holland does resemble a driver on the grid.

After the Monaco GP, fans can’t help but notice the uncanny similarities between Tom Holland and the British driver

Perhaps it is down to their nationality, but the fans could not help but see uncanny similarities between Lando Norris and Tom Holland. The British driver was pictured next to Holland during the Monaco weekend. After the picture, the fans could not help but make comparisons.

These comparisons invoked a suggestion of Holland playing Norris in any future events covering the British driver. This was the suggestion made by fans after Holland’s interview slip-up as well. However, we can be certain Holland won’t be playing Norris in the upcoming F1 movie because this feature film is set in the 90s. A young Brad Pitt perhaps?

I guess we will have to wait and find out once the movie is released. Or we can keep pushing Holland to give us more information, whatever comes first.
