The movie has been scripted by action star Sylvester Stallone, who is also producing with Kevin King Templeton and Rene Besson, the Hollywood Reporter said.
Based on a book by Chuck Logan, the story revolves around an ex-DEA agent (Statham) who moves to a small town in the hope of a quiet life but runs afoul of a villainous meth kingpin named Gator (Franco).
Ryder will play a former biker chick partnered with Franco.
The actress just completed work on thriller 'The Iceman'.
