Reedus will be joining lead stars Emmy winner Jodie Comer, Oscar nominee Tom Hardy, and Elvis breakout Austin Butler. The film will also feature Oscar nominee Michael Shannon, Boyd Holbrook, and Damon Herriman.
The Bikeriders is inspired by Danny Lyon’s 1967 photography book of the same name. It is an original story that takes place in the 1960s. The film follows the rise of a fictional Midwestern motorcycle club.
“Seen through the lives of its members, the club evolves over the course of a decade from a gathering place for local outsiders into a more sinister gang, threatening the original group’s unique way of life,” reads the synopsis.
