"John Doe (Anthony Mackie) and Quiet (Stephanie Beatriz) risk their lives to compete in a dangerous demolition derby tournament," Smith explains in a press release. "The prize? A single wish, their greatest hearts desire, granted. The only problem is sixteen other drivers have wishes of their own."
