BackstageOL’s Dave Morales sat down with Dax Shepard and Michael Pena in this backstage interview to talk about their upcoming buddy cop comedy CHiPs, a film based on the 1977-1983 TV series of the same name created by Rick Rosner.
Shepard, who directed the film, plays the role of Office Jon Baker, while Pena plays Frank “Ponch” Poncherello. In the interview, the pair discussed their love of cars, the classic TV series and more!
Synopsis:
Jon Baker and Frank “Ponch” Poncherello have just joined the California Highway Patrol in Los Angeles, but for very different reasons. Baker is a former motorbike rider who’s trying to put his life and marriage back together. Poncherello is a cocky, undercover FBI agent who’s investigating a multimillion dollar heist that may be an inside job. Forced to work together, the inexperienced rookie and hardened veteran begin clashing instead of clicking while trying to nab the bad guys.
CHiPs hits theaters this Friday, March 24th. Check out the full interview with Shepard and Pena below:
