Hot off his turn as an acrobatic vampire killer in "Blade II," Wesley Snipes will continue in the action genre with the modern-day biker film "When The Ride Is Ruff."

The Hollywood Reporter says Kirk Wong ("The Big Hit") will direct the film, which concerns a biker gang known as the Ruff Ryders, led by Snipes' character. While attending a biker rally in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, the hero is framed for murder, and must lead his gang on a ride along the eastern seaboard back to New York, through hostile rival biker territory.

The report said Ruff Ryder Records, home of DMX, Eve and The Lox, is co-producing the project and will provide the soundtrack. (More on Wesley Snipes)
