Motorheads is not just about its unique cars and street racing.
It’s a young adult series about growing up around the car culture while navigating family struggles.
In this new series from Prime Video, young high schoolers form a friendship squad to compete against bullies on the streets, while the adults have their own secrets withheld from their past.
The series stars Ryan Phillippe, Michael Cimino, Melissa Collazo, Nathalie Kelley, Uriah Shelton, and Nicolas Cantu.
Here is the official synopsis:
Motorheads is about first love, first heartbreak, and turning the key in your first car. Set in a once-thriving rust-belt town that’s now searching for a glimmer of hope, the series is an adrenaline-filled story of a group of outsiders who form an unlikely friendship over a mutual love of street racing, while navigating the hierarchy and rules of high school.
