Host And Executive Producer Keanu Reeves And North One Unveil New Limited Series Documenting The Birth Of Cadillac Formula 1® Team


(MENAFN- PR Newswire) Reeves rejoins the production team from North One with his own KR+SH production company for this new series, serving as host and executive producer mere months after his International Emmy-award win for the acclaimed Disney+ docuseries Brawn: The Impossible Formula 1 Story. Developed by Emmy-award-winning director and executive producer Simon Hammerson and three-time BAFTA-winning executive producer Neil Duncanson, the Cadillac Formula 1® Team docuseries brings together a powerhouse of creative talent to capture the ultimate story of sporting jeopardy in the high-octane world of Formula 1® and offer audiences a trackside seat for the whole ride.

"I'm very honored and excited to be a part of telling the remarkable Cadillac Formula 1® Team story and its incredible journey into the world of Formula 1® racing," said Reeves. "Our goal with the docuseries is to bring audiences into the heart of this journey and showcase what it takes to participate in one of the most exclusive sports arenas in the world."

The documentary follows the Cadillac Formula 1® Team, launched by TWG Motorsports in partnership with GM, as it embarks on the formidable task of building a Formula 1® organization from the ground up. Audiences will get an intimate look at the unique challenges of assembling a competitive team on an accelerated timeline and receive a first-hand account of the vision behind establishing a distinctly American presence in a sport long dominated by European powerhouses.

By documenting the challenges, setbacks, drive and determination required to build a new contender in Formula 1®, the series will captivate both motorsport fans and viewers interested in stories of resilience, cultural aspiration and the pursuit of ambitious goals. The story will also explore the journey to build the first American-based team amidst the backdrop of Formula 1®'s continuing growth with audiences in the US and around the world.

"This is a story of bold ambition and relentless drive," said Dan Towriss, CEO of TWG Motorsports and the Cadillac Formula 1® Team. "We're honored to work with Keanu, whose passion and knowledge of racing runs deep, and proud to partner with GM on this incredible story. We have an opportunity to welcome a new generation of fans to Formula 1® and Keanu's creativity is the perfect spark to ignite that journey.''

"General Motors and TWG Motorsports joined forces on a bold mission-to build a uniquely American Formula 1 team," said Mark Reuss, GM President. "It's a thrill to have Keanu Reeves document the Cadillac Formula 1 Team's journey to our first season in the FIA Formula One World ChampionshipTM."
