The new Brad Pitt racing film F1 The Movie speeds past a major global box office milestone that sees it landing on a major chart for the actor.

F1,' starring Brad Pitt, sped into pole position at the U.K. and Ireland box office, debuting with $9.7 million.

F1 made an estimated $55.6 million in North America in its opening weekend and racked in $144 million worldwide, the Associated Press reported. With these figures, the Pitt-led sports drama became Apple’s biggest opening to date — and the Oscar winner, 61, was a huge part of that, according to a Warner Bros. executive.
