Alan Ritchson, star of the Jack Reacher TV series, will play a former MotoGP rider chasing thieves of high-value antiquities in a new untitled action film. Chris Morgan, screenwriter of the Fast & Furious franchise, is attached to the project, and MotoGP will provide direct support for filming conditions and authenticity. No release date or additional cast has been announced.

Not to lean on the catchphrase, but as someone who loved film before he loved motorcycles, the words 'former MotoGP rider' immediately grab me. A plot about chasing an antiquities-theft ring sounds like exactly the kind of over-the-top setup Chris Morgan built his name on with Fast & Furious. MotoGP providing direct support for filming tells me they're taking authenticity seriously.

Genuinely hope we get more motorcycle films like this.

Curious how convincing his performance as an ex-racer actually turns out.

The F1 movie probably has the bigger budget, but I'm still looking forward to this one.

Even without the actor's fee, getting that level of filming support can't be cheap.

Motorsport films usually end up looking obviously CG, curious if this one's different.

With MotoGP backing it directly, the on-track realism could actually be great.
