Lewis Hamilton’s Dawn Apollo Studios signs Skydance Sports deal

Lewis Hamilton’s production company, Dawn Apollo Studios, has signed a multi-year, first-look deal with Skydance Sports, the sports entertainment division of Paramount Skydance. Under this agreement, Dawn Apollo will develop and produce a variety of content, including scripted projects, unscripted works, and animation. Hamilton will serve as executive producer on all projects.

The partnership is not limited to Skydance Sports; it also holds the potential to expand into other Paramount business sectors, such as video games and consumer products. This follows Hamilton’s previous success as a producer on the Brad Pitt film ‘F1’, which utilized his professional racing expertise to enhance its realism.

Jesse Sisgold, who leads Skydance Sports, noted Hamilton’s creative sense and commitment to authentic storytelling. Hamilton stated that the studio aims to support projects that are “honest, bold and meaningful” while providing a platform for underrepresented voices and perspectives.
