After binge-watching Reacher Season 4, you might be yearning for more of Alan Ritchson’s magnetic screen presence. Look no further than his latest cinematic venture, Motor City. This action-packed film is set to hit digital platforms for purchase and rental as soon as tomorrow, giving you another dose of Ritchsonian action.
Helmed by filmmaker Potsy Ponciroli, who recently attracted attention with his 2021 debut now finding its stride on Netflix, Motor City brings to life a script crafted by Chad St. John. This screenplay has remained a remarkable piece of unproduced literature since it debuted on the 2009 Black List, a collection of Hollywood’s most coveted yet unmade scripts. The journey from concept to screen took nearly twenty years, enduring a rollercoaster of potential leads, including Chris Evans, Dominic Cooper, Jake Gyllenhaal, and Gerard Butler, before finally settling on Ritchson to carry the film into theaters.
Alan Ritchson steps into the shoes of John Miller, a vengeful ex-con who sets his sights on taking down a mobster responsible for framing him and stealing his girlfriend in the gritty landscape of 1970s Detroit. Joining Ritchson in this crime thriller are Ben Foster, Pablo Schreiber, Lionel Boyce, and Shailene Woodley. According to Foster, dialogue takes a back seat in Motor City, with the film relying heavily on its dynamic action scenes and a gripping soundtrack. Anticipating the epic showdown? Here’s how you can catch Motor City on streaming and when it’s set to land on AMC+.
Motor City movie digital release date:

How to watch Alan Ritchson’s movie Motor City on streaming:
Motor City is not currently streaming free on any of the subscription-based streaming services. However, if you don’t want to pay to buy or rent the movie, we do expect to see Motor City streaming on AMC+ eventually, thanks to a output deal between the Independent Film Company and AMC+.
AMC+ costs $9/month. Find out more here.
When will Motor City movie be streaming free on AMC+?
We don’t yet know when Motor City will be streaming on AMC+, but we can guess it will be around late October 2026, based on previous Independent Film Company releases.
One recent IFC movie, Over Your Dead Body, began streaming on AMC+ about three months after it opened in theaters. If Motor City follows this same release pattern, you can expect Motor City to stream on Netflix around late October 2026, aka three months after the movie opened in theaters.
This is all speculation. We don’t yet have the Motor City AMC+ release date. If you don’t want to wait, you can go ahead and buy or rent Motor City online.
