‘F1’ brings racing to the movie screen

Start your engines and gear up for the movie of the summer. Set to release on June 27, sports action film “F1” is directed by Joseph Kosinski and stars Brad Pitt as Sonny Hayes, a fictional retired Formula One driver who makes a surprise reappearance to aid a struggling team.

After leaving the racing world due to an injury, Hayes returns to help APXGP — the crew owned by his friend Ruben Cervantes, played by Javier Bardem — which is on the verge of collapse. Attempting to bring the team back to success, hotshot rookie Joshua Pearce, played by Damson Idris, must work together with Hayes, balancing old-school driving traditions with new, modern styles to win the race to redemption. F1 fans and film buffs alike should prepare to have their axles blown off by this future blockbuster release.

‘The Summer I Turned Pretty’ returns for Season 3

The love triangle of the summer is back for another season. Team Jeremiah or Team Conrad? The tense debate continues as the popular Amazon Prime show, “The Summer I Turned Pretty,” will begin streaming its third season on July 16. The question is: who will Belly choose?

The show starts off by introducing 16-year-old Belly Conklin, who has had a childhood crush on Conrad Fisher. When she finally gets sick of chasing him without any reciprocation, she realizes she could turn to Jeremiah, Conrad’s younger brother, instead. Through the first two seasons, tensions increase as the two brothers vie for Belly’s affection, and in the upcoming final season, she will make her official choice.
