“Well, right now, it’d be Cole Trickle, who was [Cruise’s] ‘Days of Thunder’ character, we find out that he and [Brad Pitt’s] Sonny Hayes have a past. They were rivals at some point, maybe crossed paths,” Kosinski said, adding, ‘Who wouldn’t pay to see those two go head-to-head on the track?”

Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise spent years trying to make their version of "Ford v. Ferrari" with "F1" director Joseph Kosinski.

Pitt also noted that he’d love to work on a follow-up to Cruise’s 1990 racing film ‘Days of Thunder.’ Before F1: The Movie raced into theaters last week, Brad Pitt was originally set to star in another racing film alongside none other than Tom Cruise .
