Poncherello and Baker are back to protect the city streets, though these CHiPS are a bit different than the ones you might remember.

The hit 1970's show about two motorcycle police officers is back, starring Michael Pena as Ponch and Dax Shepard as his partner Jon Baker.

Shepard, who also helped write the script and directed the film, recently spoke about the vibe he was going for. "My aim was somewhere in the Bad Boys, Lethal Weapon world," he said. "That was my take on it. It's interesting because it's definitely a comedy where the show is not, but the stakes are very real and the world is real and the physics are real and all those things are grounded. Insane situations happen but it's not happening in a satire world or a heightened world. It's a very real world."

CHiPs the movie stars Michael Pena (The Martian) as Frank "Ponch" Poncherello, Dax Shepard (Parenthood) as Jon Baker, Jessica McNamee (The Vow) as Lindsey Taylor, Adam Brody (Mr. & Mrs. Smith) as Clay Allen, and Ryan Hansen (Central Intelligence) as Brian Grieves. Other actors reportedly appearing in the upcoming flick include: Vincent D'Onofrio (Law & Order: Criminal Intent), Kristen Bell (Frozen), Maya Rudolph (Bridesmaids), and Adam Rodriguez (CSI: Miami).

CHiPs is slated to hit theaters on March 24, 2017.
