Ricky Staub will make his directorial feature debut with the motion picture and he has also penned the screenplay alongside Dan Walser.
Staub previously said: “This story was built out of a deep friendship and collaboration with the riders of North Philly, and I couldn’t be more excited to honor their legacy with this film.”
Elba recently admitted that he was “stuck in limbo” after recovering from COVID-19 as he and his wife, Sabrina Dhowre Elba, are unable to return to London from New Mexico.
In a video message posted on his social media channels, Idris said: “We’re both doing OK, still asymptomatic.
“We’ve passed the quarantine period but we’re a little bit stuck in limbo — we can’t get a flight back home. So we just have to sit still for a little bit.
“Other than that, we’re OK, and we’re so thankful for that. I think the worst of it has probably passed.”
