The Bikeriders is a gripping drama-action film set in the 1960s, focusing on a motorcycle gang called “The Vandals.” Led by Johnny (Austin Butler), the gang is not just a group of bikers but a symbol of freedom, loyalty, and defiance in a rapidly changing society.
Tom Hardy stars as Benny, a seasoned member growing increasingly disillusioned with the gang’s descent into criminal activities. Jodie Comer plays Kathy, Johnny’s lover, a character torn between her attraction to the gang’s wild lifestyle and her fear of its inevitable consequences.
The film delves deeply into the conflict between brotherhood, loyalty, and the cost of freedom in a tumultuous era. Stunning action sequences, intense gang rivalries, and a poignant love story bring emotional depth to the narrative.
Inspired by Danny Lyon’s renowned photography collection, The Bikeriders is more than just a tale of speed and passion—it’s a profound look at individuals living on the fringes of society.
