As of this writing, if you already have plans to go or live near Towcester in the UK, you might have a chance to be an extra in the crowd and watch the filming, as there are still tickets available (but will probably sell out quickly).
The British Grand Prix schedule is:
July 7, 2023: Practice
July 8, 2023: Practice & Qualifying
July 9, 2023: Race
The address is: Silverstone Circuit, Towcester NN12 8TL, UK
It is likely there will be other opportunities for background actors, stand-in roles and perhaps featured background opportunities as production continues.
“Apex” or “Untitled Formula 1 Project” stars Brad Pitt as Sonny Hayes, Tobias Menzies and Kerry Condon.
It is an Apple Original Film.
Directed by Joseph Kosinski (Top Gun Maverick!) and written by Ehren Kruger.
Casting directors are Lucy Bevan, Emily Brockmann, Katie Brydon.
Keep an eye on @CastingLucy on Twitter as casting calls for extras might be announced there.
It also appears filming will be done in Los Angeles, California in addition to the United Kingdom.
Details are still emerging, and we’ll update you here and on our newsletter as we find out more.
