Lewis Hamilton Launches Film & TV Company Dawn Apollo Films: Seven-Time F1 Champ Talks Ambition, Life After Racing, His ‘Top Gun: Maverick’ Regret & The Advice He Got From Jeffrey Katzenberg & George Lucas

EXCLUSIVE: Lewis Hamilton is launching film and TV production company Dawn Apollo Films.
The seven-time Formula One champion, who holds the record for most F1 wins, pole positions, and podium finishes, sat down with us to discuss plans for the company, the important role film has played in his life and the role it could play for him after retirement.
The Mercedes star has set up the firm in partnership with his manager, Copper CEO Penni Thow.
Already on the slate are two anticipated projects with Apple TV+: an untitled Formula One racing film from Top Gun: Maverick director Joe Kosinski, starring Brad Pitt; and a feature documentary on Hamilton’s own journey, during which he has famously broken barriers on and off the track. The former will follow a driver who comes out of retirement to compete alongside a rookie against the titans of his sport. Both titles will be executive-produced by Hamilton under the new production banner.
Hamilton says main ambition for the company will be to push “meaningful conversations and impactful storytelling”. The iconic sportsman is particularly keen to build opportunities for diverse voices whether they be from sports, fashion, culture, or technology backgrounds.
Check out our chat below, in which Hamilton discusses working with streamers, meeting with Hollywood A-listers Jeffrey Katzenberg and George Lucas, the chances of him stepping in front of the camera, and his advice for frustrated Denver Broncos fans (Hamilton is part of a consortium that recently took a stake in the franchise).
DEADLINE: It has been a challenging year on the track. Some people are still pretty ticked off with how last season ended. You must feel that even more…
LEWIS HAMILTON: I try to move forward. Whether
