It will be accessible to view on November 15 for those of you who genuinely simply want to know when Keanu Reeves' much anticipated Brawn GP documentary will be released. Thank you very much.
Here is what we know in case anyone else needs a bit more information: The four-part series Brawn: The Impossible Formula 1 Story will premiere on Disney+ and Hulu in the US the following month.
The documentary, which is executive produced by Neo, er, Reeves himself, goes behind the scenes with the "understaffed, underfinanced, and independent team" that defied all expectations to win the F1 world championship in 2009 with both a vehicle and a driver.
Longtime F1 enthusiasts will know that Honda made the quick decision to leave the sport in 2008, and that Ross Brawn purchased the team for the symbolic sum of £1. Without meaning to, that company's current value as Mercedes-AMG Petronas etcetera etcetera is probably north of a billion pounds.
The series includes access to video from the F1 archives, "much of it previously unseen," according to Disney, and has interviews with world champion Jenson Button, colleague Rubens Barrichelo, CEO Nick Fry, rival team leader Christian Horner, and of course Ross Brawn himself.
It is a North One production that Simon Hammerson and Neil Duncanson planned, wrote, and produced. Award-winning Daryl Goodrich was brought in to serve as director.
We're huge fans of both F1 and John Wick, apologies to Keanu Reeves, so we're pretty excited about this. The actor is really impassioned about the Brawn F1 tale, as anybody who watched his post-qualifying interview with Martin Brundle at the British Grand Prix in 2022 will attest.
With that and the next F1 movie starring Brad Pitt, this broad appeal is really something.
