Another Formula One blockbuster is in the works. 

After grossing over $630 million worldwide, “F1: The Movie” is now getting a sequel. 

Famed producer Jerry Bruckheimer confirmed the news to the “BBC” while attending the Academy Awards annual luncheon in Los Angeles on Tuesday.

“We’re working on a sequel,” he said, adding that he was “surprised” and “delighted” by the film’s Best Picture nomination. 

Bruckheimer refused to share any casting details or a release timeline, but F1 fans can at least rest easy by knowing that they’ll get to see Brad Pitt and Damson Idris reunite again, assuming they’ll both be cast in this next one.

Although Bruckheimer is being type lipped on his latest flick, he was, however, open to share what it was like working with Pitt for the first time in his career. 

“I never worked with Brad Pitt before and it’s really a thrill to work with Brad,” Bruckheimer told the outlet, adding, “It was a long journey to get the movie made because we had to endure a couple of strikes – but in the end, the movie entertained audiences around the world.”

The sports drama was centered on the life of veteran Formula 1 driver Sonny Hayes, played by Pitt, who returns to racing  to save his former teammate’s underdog team, APXGP.
