What's Happening?
Brad Pitt's latest film, 'F1: The Movie,' is now available for digital rental and purchase on platforms like Prime Video and Apple TV.

The movie, which has been a summer blockbuster, is expected to stream on Apple TV+ later this year, expanding its reach to a broader audience.
Why It's Important?
The digital release of 'F1: The Movie' reflects the growing trend of films being made available on streaming platforms shortly after theatrical releases, catering to changing consumer preferences for home viewing. This approach can increase accessibility and viewership, potentially impacting box office dynamics and the traditional film distribution model. The film's success may also influence future collaborations between high-profile actors and streaming services.
