Motor City Trailer Debuts as Studio Confirms Exclusive July 24 Theatrical Release

New footage and official press materials position the 1970s revenge thriller as a throwback big‑screen action spectacle fueled by Jack White’s rock score.

Overview

  • The studio released an official trailer and marketing materials that confirm Motor City’s synopsis, principal credits and a theatrical‑only opening on July 24.
  • Alan Ritchson stars as a framed, ex‑prison protagonist seeking revenge in 1970s Detroit with Shailene Woodley, Pablo Schreiber, Ben Foster, Ben McKenzie, Lionel Boyce, and Amar Chadha‑Patel among the co‑stars.
  • Potsy Ponciroli directs from a screenplay by Chad St. John, continuing Ponciroli’s recent focus on tight, genre‑driven films built around physical performances.
  • Promotional copy and the trailer emphasize old‑school, precision stunt work, immersive sound design, and a thunderous rock score composed by Jack White to shape the film’s retro tone.
  • The marketing push frames Motor City as a summer theatrical event aimed at moviegoers who want loud, practical action on the big screen and could signal the studio’s bet on spectacle to drive box office turnout.
