Getaway Driver and
The Hop (w/t). Both series will screen across all Discovery platforms.
Getaway Driver is hosted by actress Michelle Rodriguez (pictured) who will be joined by rally champion Wyatt Knox in a series that is being billed as “the real life

“I’m glad Discovery has decided to take it to the edge with a show like this. This is a whole new type of challenge for racers of all classes, I’m excited for what we’re pioneering here,” said Rodriguez in a statement.
