Motor City is now available to rent or buy digitally, giving Alan Ritchson’s revenge thriller a new home on August 25, 2026 after its theatrical run ended. The film can be found through Amazon Prime, Apple TV, Fandango at Home and other participating retailers.
That matters because the movie gives viewers a second chance to watch Ritchson as John Miller, a Detroit factory worker pulled into a 1970s-set revenge drama. Shailene Woodley appears as Sophia Hammond, while Ben Foster plays Reynolds, Pablo Schreiber plays Savick, Ben McKenzie plays Kent and Lionel Boyce plays Youngblood.
For the release, the draw is simple: people searching for Alan Ritchson New Streaming Action can now choose between renting and purchasing, depending on the retailer they use. In practice, those digital storefronts usually split the options in the same way most movie releases do — a lower-cost rental for temporary access, or a higher-priced purchase for ongoing access — though the exact price can vary by platform.
The digital debut comes after a theatrical run that did not come close to its reported $30 million production budget. Motor City earned about $2.93 million worldwide, a gap that puts the film’s commercial performance in sharp relief even as it continues to draw attention online.
Critics have been more receptive than ticket buyers. Motor City holds a 63% score on Rotten Tomatoes based on 95 reviews, with an audience score of 65 percent, a split that suggests curiosity around the film has outlasted its box office life.
What happens next is more limited: the move to digital is the new distribution step, and no further release plan has been confirmed beyond rental and purchase access. For now, the movie’s next audience will decide whether Motor City was missed in theaters or simply better suited to the living room.
