Tom Hardy is set to lead the movie adaptation of The Bikeriders


a fictional story inspired by the photography of Danny Lyon and his 1967 book The Bikeriders.

The film is an original story set in the 1960s following the rise of a fictional Midwestern motorcycle club. Seen through the lives of its members, the club evolves over the course of a decade from a gathering place for local outsiders into a more sinister gang, threatening the original group’s unique way of life.
