North One is excited to announce a brand-new documentary series that will chart the extraordinary journey of the Cadillac Formula 1 Team as they prepare to join the grid in 2026 — fronted by filmmaker and motorsport enthusiast Keanu Reeves.


With exclusive access granted by the Cadillac Formula 1 Team, TWG Motorsports and General Motors (GM), the series will go behind the scenes of F1’s newest operation, capturing their bold effort to build a competitive team ahead of their highly anticipated debut at next year’s season opener in Australia.


The production sees North One partnering with Keanu Reeves’ own company KR+SH, with the Hollywood star serving as both host and executive producer, just months after winning an Emmy for the acclaimed Disney+ docuseries Brawn: The Impossible Formula 1 Story.


The series will be developed by Emmy-winning director and executive producer Simon Hammerson alongside North One’s three-time BAFTA-winning executive producer Neil Duncanson. Audiences can look forward to “an intimate look at the unique challenges of assembling a competitive team on an accelerated timeline”, while gaining “a first-hand account of the vision behind establishing a distinctly American presence in a sport long dominated by European powerhouses”.

The series is set to air ahead of Cadillac’s first race at Melbourne’s Albert Park in March 2026.


Keanu Reeves said:

“I’m very honoured 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.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.”

Dan Towriss, CEO of TWG Motorsports and the Cadillac Formula 1 Team, added:

“This is a story of bold ambition and relentless drive. We’re honoured 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.”

Mark Reuss, GM President, said:

“General Motors and TWG Motorsports joined forces on a bold mission – to build a uniquely American Formula 1 team. 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 Championship.”

As Cadillac finalises its preparations — including naming its two drivers and competing initially with Ferrari power units before introducing its own engines — North One is proud to capture this ambitious chapter in motorsport history.


Further details on broadcast partners and release dates will be shared soon.
