Keanu Reeves and Gard Hollinger’s ARCH Motorcycle launches race team, with six-part docu-series premiering July 12 on Samsung TV Plus

Keanu Reeves and Gard Hollinger are taking their motorcycle ambitions from the garage to the track, launching an ARCH Motorcycle racing effort that will be documented in a new six-part docu-series debuting on Samsung TV Plus. Reeves, speaking in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, described the concept as starting as “a bit of a fantasy” that became feasible after ARCH developed an engine and a program aimed at turning their build philosophy into racing performance.

Reeves and Hollinger first met in 2009, when Reeves commissioned Hollinger to build a motorcycle. Two years later, they founded ARCH Motorcycle together, positioning the company around a mission to challenge assumptions about American motorcycles and to refine design choices that affect the ride. ARCH’s founders say both are long-time racing fans, and the racing project was shaped around competition they believed would be a fit for the machines and the team they were building.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Reeves and Hollinger pointed to the Super Hooligan racing series, created by Roland Sands in conjunction with MotoAmerica, as a starting point for their plans. They also said they wanted the sport to reach a broader audience, which is why they pursued filming their racing journey for a documentary-format series rather than limiting the effort to race participation alone.

The resulting series, titled “Hooligans: The ARCH Racing Project with Keanu Reeves & Gard Hollinger,” will premiere exclusively on Samsung TV Plus on Sunday, July 12 at 9 p.m. Eastern, with new episodes airing every Sunday through August 16. Yahoo Entertainment reported that the series is produced for Samsung TV Plus by V10 Entertainment and that Reeves and Hollinger are both executive producers and on-camera participants.

The show follows the founders and the ARCH team as they move from building “world-class machines” to competing in MotoAmerica, which is described in the announcements as the top American motorcycle road racing series. The docu-series will cover the work leading up to races, the team’s efforts to compete in the Super Hooligan National Championship, and the operational challenges that come with taking a small, craft-focused brand into a professional motorsports environment.

ARCH Motorcycle previously announced the formation of a race team in 2025, describing an unscripted series partnership and noting that the team would use a newly designed proprietary engine. That earlier announcement and industry reporting around the effort framed the project as an expansion of ARCH’s engineering and branding into live competition, now reflected in the broader distribution of the docu-series on Samsung’s streaming service.

As the series begins its rollout on a mainstream streaming platform, the project also highlights the public-facing side of a sport known for high-speed competition and frequent emphasis on safety protocols and track rules. For viewers, the docu-series provides a behind-the-scenes look at how racing teams train, prepare equipment, and coordinate decisions under the constraints of professional series competition.
