Alan Ritchson’s character is drawn into a worldwide antiquities theft conspiracy

The planned movie under Alan Ritchson’s new collaboration with Netflix will reportedly follow a team of motorcycle thieves who steal priceless antiquities around the world. To catch them, Interpol recruits a MotoGP star, played by the American actor. However, his mission takes a complex turn when he realizes the crew’s leader might be his younger brother, long believed to be dead.
