It stars Anthony Mackie, whose film Captain America: Brave New World opens in theaters Friday.

Stephanie Beatriz, Will Arnett, Anthony Carrigan and Joe Seanoa co-star in Twisted Metal.

"The stakes couldn't be higher as John Doe (Anthony Mackie) and Quiet (Stephanie Beatriz) risk their lives to compete in a dangerous demolition derby tournament," showrunner Michael Jonathan Smith said in a press release Thursday. "The prize? A single wish, their greatest hearts desire, granted. The only problem is 16 other drivers have wishes of their own."
