Jerry Bruckheimer is the Hollywood producer behind some of the biggest blockbusters of all time, including “Top Gun,” “Armageddon” and “Pirates of the Caribbean.” Now, he’s back with “F1,” which stars Brad Pitt as an aging Formula One driver who attempts to make a comeback 30 years after his career is derailed by an accident. Jerry joins guest host Talia Schlanger to talk about some of the incredible feats he’s pulled off as a producer, and how he drew on everything he knows about making action-packed movies to create this new film.
