Warner Bros. just released the official synopsis for CHIPs, which is filming now.
Dax Shepard and Michael Peña star in the action comedy. Shepard wrote and directed the film based on the characters from the popular ‘70s television series created by Rick Rosner. Jon Baker and Frank “Ponch” Poncherello have just joined the California Highway Patrol (CHP) in Los Angeles but for very different reasons. Baker is a beaten up pro motorbiker trying to put his life and marriage back together. Poncherello is a cocky undercover Federal agent investigating a multi-million dollar heist that may be an inside job—inside the CHP.
The inexperienced rookie and hardened pro are teamed together, but clash more than click, so kickstarting a partnership is easier said than done. But with Baker’s bike skills combined with Ponch’s street savvy it might just work…if they don’t drive each other crazy along the way.
Rounding out the cast are Kristen Bell, Rosa Salazar, Adam Brody, Jessica McNamee, Ryan Hansen, David Koechner, Michael K. Williams and Vincent D’Onofrio.
