Hollywood legends Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise thrilled fans with a rare red carpet reunion at the London premiere of Pitt’s new movie F1 on June 23.
The A-list actors, who last appeared together on-screen in the 1994 cult classic Interview with the Vampire, greeted each other warmly and posed for photographers, reigniting nostalgic memories among movie buffs.
Pitt, 61, looked stylish in a green double-breasted suit paired with bold orange sunglasses, debuting a sleek new buzz cut. Tom Cruise, 62, opted for a timeless dark gray suit and his iconic aviator shades, delivering his signature charm at the star-studded event.
The reunion brought back memories of their roles as Louis and Lestat in the Anne Rice adaptation, which also featured standout performances by Antonio Banderas, Stephen Rea, Christian Slater, and a young Kirsten Dunst.
Although Interview with the Vampire remains their only shared film, both Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise have collaborated with similar directors and producers over the years.
Adding to the connection, F1 is directed by Joseph Kosinski and produced by Jerry Bruckheimer—the same powerhouse team behind Cruise’s 2022 blockbuster Top Gun: Maverick. This new film sees Pitt take on the role of Sonny Hayes, a former Formula One driver making a sensational comeback with a fictional racing team. F1 hits theaters on June 27 and is already generating buzz among motorsport enthusiasts and movie fans alike.
Cruise previously praised Pitt’s driving talents during a CinemaCon 2025 appearance, recalling their friendly rivalry during the Interview with the Vampire shoot. “He’s a very good driver,” Cruise shared. “Believe me, I’ve raced against him. We used to go go-karting after filming. It was intense and a lot of fun.”
Their surprise red carpet moment has reignited fan interest in a potential future collaboration, reminding audiences of the star power and charisma both actors continue to bring to the big screen. As F1 gears up for its theatrical debut, the Pitt-Cruise reunion adds even more excitement to the film’s high-octane promotion.
