Ryan Phillippe’s New Drama Series Hits #3 on Prime & the Trailer Is Packed with Emotion and Adrenaline

With new shows dropping every day, it's easy for a few to slip through the cracks—or in this case, past my eyeballs. That said, it didn’t take long for Motorheads, a new original series from Prime Video, to catch my attention.

I was actually logging in to check out the new thriller The Better Sister (mini-review on that here), but a quick scroll through the platform’s Top 10 list stopped me in my tracks. Sitting pretty at #3? Ryan Phillippe. Naturally, I clicked. And that’s how I discovered Motorheads.

The trailer opens with a line that sets the tone: “There are two types of people in this world—those who hit the brakes and those who hit the gas. The question you have to ask yourself is 'Which one are you?'” And honestly? It's kind of a vibe.

Also, sidenote: when did Ryan Phillippe’s voice get that deep? The last time I really remember hearing his voice was when I rewatched 1999's Cruel Intentions—he was around 25 then. So yeah, hearing how deep it is now definitely caught me off guard.
