‘F1 The Movie' Star Javier Bardem Drives in the Slow Lane
Javier Bardem doesn't own a car, but if he did, he'd keep it in the slow lane.
In the new Formula One action vehicle 'F1 The Movie ,' however, he's all about speed. The Oscar-winning Spanish actor, 56, plays Ruben Cervantes, a former hotshot driver turned racing-team owner. With his career in trouble, Ruben convinces Sonny Hayes (Brad Pitt), a rogue driver whose past includes dashed F1 dreams, to join the struggling team led by rookie phenom Joshua Pearce (Damson Idris).
