WTFilms Rides into TIFF with ‘Motorrad’
Paris-based WTFilms has just come on board to handle worldwide sales for the Brazilian horror/thriller Motorrad. Directed and by Vicente Amorim, the film will have its World Premiere in the Contemporary World Cinema section at this year’s Toronto International Film Festival on September 11th. WTFilms’ team of Gregory Chambet and Dimitri Stephanides will handle all sales for the film on the ground in Toronto.
In the film, a gang of young dirt-bikers on a ride across an isolated region of Brazil find themselves being hunted by a machete-wielding band of motorcyclists intent on killing them all.
Motorrad is produced by LG Tubaldini Jr and André Skaf, and stars Guilherme Prates, Carla Salle, Emilio Dantas and Juliana Lohmann. It was written by LG Bayao, based on characters created by comic book author, and Marvel staffer, Danilo Beyruth.
Motorrad was filmed on location in Brazil.

Keanu Reeves Describes Untitled Time Loop Thriller from Director Tim Miller as ‘Groundhog Day’ With Sharks
At one point known as Shiver, Tim Miller‘s (Deadpool, Terminator: Dark Fate) next movie doesn’t yet have a title, but star Keanu Reeves offers a very intriguing tease this week.
Chatting with Collider, Reeves explains what drew him to the mysterious upcoming project from director Tim Miller. He tells the outlet, “Sharks. Time machine. Groundhog Day.”
That lines up with early plot details that surfaced earlier this year, with the film said to center on a “smuggler in the middle of a deadly double-cross while on a job in the Caribbean Sea.”
That synopsis continued, “Surrounded by bodies, hostile mercenaries, and bloodthirsty sharks, the man finds himself in a time loop and scrambling to break the cycle.”
Callie Cooke (“The Stranger”), Stefan Kapičić (Deadpool), Steven Waddington (Sleepy Hollow), Nicholas Duvernay (“The White Lotus”), Abraham Popoola (Cruella), Anastasia Safonov, and Bobby Holland Hanton (Thor: Love and Thunder) also star.
Ian Shorr (Splinter, Infinite) penned the screenplay for the sci-fi thriller, which had previously been described as having shades of Edge of Tomorrow and The Shallows.
Stay tuned for more on the untitled Warner Bros. project.
