Alan Ritchson is out for revenge in 1970s Detroit in trailer for Motor City

May 6, 2026 by Amie Cranswick

IFC has released a trailer and images for Motor City, the upcoming action thriller from director Potsy Ponciroli.

Set in 1970s Detroit, the film sees Reacher star Alan Ritchson as John Miller, a working-class man who is framed for a crime he didn’t commit after falling in love with the girlfriend of a ruthless gangster. After serving his sentence John returns and sets out on a brutal path of revenge.

Joining Ritchson in the cast is Shailene Woodley, Pablo Schreiber, Ben Foster, and Ben McKenzie. Check out the trailer below…

In 1970s Detroit a working-class romantic is framed by a ruthless gangster after falling for his girlfriend. After years in prison, he returns with only one mission: revenge.

With operatic scale, MOTOR CITY unleashes a barrage of brutal action, magnetic performances, and striking imagery, fueled by a thunderous rock score, precision-crafted action, and immersive sound design to create a visceral, propulsive spectacle built to electrify audiences this summer.

Motor City arrives in cinemas on July 24th.
