Brad Pitt dominates F1 on the first weekend of its release and leaves Megan in the dust

The new racing movie ‘F1’, directed by Jerry Bruckheimer and Joseph Kosinski, has been hailed as a canonical summer blockbuster. With a very ‘Top Gun: Maverick’ style approach but on the asphalt of Formula 1 tracks, the project has generated great box office expectations, leading to optimistic estimates for its release. As Megan finds out, ‘F1’ has achieved an impressive global opening of 140 million dollars, marking Brad Pitt’s best debut since 2012, when ‘World War Z’ earned 112 million in its opening weekend.

The new racing movie ‘F1’, directed by Jerry Bruckheimer and Joseph Kosinski, has been hailed as a canonical summer blockbuster. With a very ‘Top Gun: Maverick’ style approach but on the asphalt of Formula 1 tracks, the project has generated great box office anticipation, leading to optimistic estimates for its release.

How Megan found out the mess

‘F1’ has achieved an impressive global debut of 140 million dollars, marking Brad Pitt’s best opening since 2012, when ‘World War Z’ earned 112 million in its opening weekend. Additionally, the film would have the second-best domestic opening in the United States with 55 million dollars, only behind ‘World War Z’, and would establish itself as the best launch of an original Apple film, surpassing the 22 million of Martin Scorsese’s ‘Killers of the Flower Moon’.

The potential success of ‘F1’ also represents a milestone for Warner as a distributor of original titles, following the success of ‘The Sinners’ in this film season. The combination of talent behind the scenes and high adrenaline content seems to have resonated positively with critics and audiences who have been able to view the film.

On the other hand, the box office outlook is not as encouraging for ‘M3GAN 2.0’. The new Blumhouse installment has had a disappointing debut of 10.4 million dollars, a number significantly lower than the expected 30 million. Its reception has been lukewarm, with many reviews pointing to a lack of connection with the audience due to its change in tone and humor.

With these results, the weekend at the box office has shown a clear contrast between the resounding success of ‘F1’ and the difficulties faced by ‘M3GAN 2.0’, highlighting the changing dynamics of the current film market.

Allison Williams, known for her role in the horror movie M3GAN, has developed a special connection with her co-star, Violet McGraw, who plays her niece in the film. However, this relationship has led Williams to make a drastic decision: to forbid McGraw from watching her previous series, Girls.

Girls, an incredible series… for adults over 18

During a joint interview with Entertainment Tonight, Williams expressed her concerns about the content of Girls, a series that aired from 2012 to 2017 and that generated controversy for its bold scenes and themes, even risqué ones. Violet has not seen Girls, nor will she ever, Williams stated, emphasizing her desire to protect the young actress from a specific scene that makes her uncomfortable. Although she did not detail which scene this is, her firmness was clear.

The actress explained that every time she talks about the series, a scene comes to mind: I can’t be in the same country when you watch it. McGraw, who is only 14 years old, tried to defend herself by stating that she is already an adult, but Williams responded with concern, urging her to enjoy her youth.

Girls, which won several Emmy awards and explored the lives of four women in their twenties in New York, addressed love, friendship, and professional careers. However, the series was also criticized for its controversial content, leading Williams to reflect on her role and how the challenging scenes affected her experience on set. Remembering her preparation for some of those scenes, she described how they worked to create a comfortable environment for the actors involved.

The sequel to M3GAN, titled M3GAN 2.0, is scheduled to be released in theaters on June 27, 2025, promising more thrills and surprises for fans of the saga.
