Introduction to The Bikeriders

It tells the story of Joe, a character from Ireland, who just moved to London and needed to find work. We know nothing about his past until he starts telling us about his experience working night shifts at a bike repair shop for two months. It focuses on how the customers tell so much about themselves without even speaking.

This film is based on real events and addresses modern-day prejudice against immigrants in Britain. The film was shot around North London and the old industrial estates of Essex such as Parkeston Quay and Tilbury Docks which were extensively used during World War II by American troops as staging posts for their way to Europe.

Story of The Bikeriders

Bikeriders is a cross between documentary and cinema verite. It tells at heart the story of Danny and Jonny, two long-time best friends who are part of an old motorcycle club that rides together in Toulouse, France.

When a new member of the group, Antoine, starts to challenge the old values and customs of their brotherhood, tensions start to rise between those who have been together from day one and those who are new or have found themselves abroad fighting for the country. The friends soon find themselves divided into two rival gangs: The Bikersiders and their opponents…The Bikersiders 2nd Generation (TBG).

Although based on the real story of Danny and Jonny, it is a fictional film made for entertainment purposes only and does not take the trivial facts and details of the real story as postulations.

The Bikeriders, directed by Jeff Nichols, now features Tom Hardy

Tom Hardy has signed up to join the cast of Jeff Nichols’ The Bikeriders, an upcoming biopic about the infamous motorcycle club.

Sources close to the production tell Variety that Hardy will play Frank “Mother” Hamer, a former Texas Ranger and expert marksman who joined forces with local law enforcement to take down gangs terrorizing rural communities in Central Texas in the mid-1920s.

Variety notes that Hamer was one of just two Rangers who successfully shot and killed Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow, which made him a prized trophy for criminal organizations.

The Bikeriders also stars Tye Sheridan, Michael Shannon, and Teresa Palmer. Nichols is producing alongside Shannon, Marc Schaberg, Sarah Green, and Adam Kassan.
