Watch Lewis Hamilton expertly shoot targets with assault rifle and pistol as F1 ace reveals he’s training for movie role


LEWIS HAMILTON expertly shoots targets at a practice range – as he reveals he is training to become a Hollywood movie star.

The Brit Formula One star has been in the stages of planning for his career outside motorsport for the past few years.

He has made no secret of his intentions of moving into the film industry, while already linking up with Arnold Schwarzenegger and James Cameron for a new documentary.

The 35-year-old has already turned down roles in Tinseltown, after being invited to join the cast of the new Top Gun flick.

But the six-time Mercedes world champion looks likely to go into a more hands-on action role after posting his latest Instagram video.

Hamilton can be seen whipping a pistol from its holder, before nailing targets spread out throughout the range while proud brother Nicholas watches on.

And in another short clip, he has an assault rifle over his shoulder, while picking off cardboard cut-outs at Taran Tactical’s range in Simi Valley, California, US.

His caption on Instagram read: “Excited to show you something I’ve started working on.

“I’ve always loved action movies and dreamed of one day being in one.
