Reeves has been a long-time motorcycle enthusiast and the 'Sonic' star even started his own motorcycle line in 2011, that included a limited-edition sport bike based on a Harley-styled chassis. The actor and his Arch Motorcycle co-founder Gard Hollinger now star in the Roku Channel docuseries, 'Visionaries,' which follows the two as they travel the world to meet with innovators and inspiring creatives (stream the series online through any Roku device).
As for Harley-Davidson, the new CVO Road Glide RR model offers a mix of contemporary styling and performance. The bike's graphics are inspired by the livery created for the 2025 Harley-Davidson Factory Racing Team, with sleek leather trim, a dark carbon fiber weave, Hog Black engine and components, and 'Racing Orange' highlights on the lifter tubes and rocker boxes. The wheels are finished with a subtle red 'CVO RR' logo laser-etched into the rim. Slick and aerodynamic, the bike is paired with a new Screamin' Eagle 131 V-Twin engine for peak torque and horsepower.
The CVO Road Glide RR model also features the debut of a new premium audio system powered by Rockford Fosgate. Officially dubbed the 'Harley-Davidson Audio powered by Rockford Fosgate Stage III' system, the setup includes a pair of three-way, 6.5-inch speakers with up to 250 watts of power. The bike also features a 12.3-inch 'infotainment' screen that allows easy pairing with Apple CarPlay and music apps over WiFi or Bluetooth. The CVO Road Glide RR ships with a wireless headset so you can still hear your tunes and content while you're on the road.
Only 131 units were released for the Harley-Davidson CVO Road Glide RR, with a retail price of $110,000. No word on whether Reeves actually scored one of these bikes for himself but interested customers can get more details on the Harley website.

The Value of Video Game IP in Post-‘Minecraft' Hollywood
With 'A Minecraft Movie' in striking distance of the billion-dollar mark at the global box office, there's no better time to check in on the state of the video game industry, with an emphasis on its intersection with Hollywood. Kaare Eriksen, author of a recent Variety Intelligence Platform special report on these subjects, tackles everything on the latest episode of Variety's 'Strictly Business' podcast — from the shadow that Trump-era tariffs could cast over Nintendo's Switch 2 console launch next month to the shift of 'Grand Theft Auto 6' to 2026. More from Variety 'Final Destination: Bloodlines' Claims Top Spot at U.K. and Ireland Box Office as Tom Cruise's 'Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning' Looms Tom Cruise's 'Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning' Rockets to No. 1 at Korea Box Office Jeffrey P. Jones on Why the Peabody Awards Are America's Archive of TV Excellence Rockstar Games, publisher of the hugely popular franchise, announced earlier this month that 'GTA 6' is now set to release on May 26, 2026. Many publishers behind big games expected this year were reportedly reluctant to commit to release dates until they knew for sure 'GTA 6' is locked down to one. Listen to the podcast here: 'The immediate upside is the sheer reality that now some publishers can breathe a bit easy and schedule games for the fall,' said Eriksen. Meanwhile, Warner Bros.'s 'A Minecraft Movie,' starring Jack Black and Jason Momoa, has done well enough to become the second-best gaming adaptation ever at the box office, which will certainly whet appetites among film execs to capitalize on other gaming properties. 'If there's going to be any kind of ramifications of a 'Minecraft' movie doing so well, it is going to be studios obviously salivating for the chance to take some IP, whether it's 'Grand Theft Auto,' 'Call of Duty,' or even Fortnite and Roblox, and try to figure out a way to do movies around those if it means they could potentially bring out that big of an audience,' said Eriksen.

The White Lotus Star Sam Nivola Has His Say On 'Nepo Baby' Comments
Fabio Lovino/HBO The White Lotus star Sam Nivola has addressed critics who've called him a 'nepo baby' due to his family's ties to the entertainment industry. Earlier this year, Sam caused a major stir in the third season of The White Lotus, in which he played the youngest member of the Ratliff family, Lochlan. As part of Variety's Actors On Actors interview series, the actor recently sat down with Monsters star Cooper Koch, in which he admitted that he's 'constantly' being asked about nepotism in interviews because his mum and dad are also actors, Emily Mortimer and Alessandro Nivola. 'My whole thing was that my parents really didn't want me to be an actor, which I totally get – I don't know if I'd want my kid to be an actor. It's a really mentally tough career to be in,' he explained. 'And even if I had no success, I would want to be doing it. But they really didn't want me to do it.' Sam went on to say that, initially, he wasn't interested in acting himself, until watching films in the Criterion Collection made him fall 'in love with cinema', and in turn, made him want to be an actor. Back in March, Sam's on-screen brother Patrick Schwarzenegger – who has also had to contend with accusations of nepotism due to the fact his parents are action star (and former governor of California) Arnold Schwarzenegger and journalist Maria Shriver – revealed that his co-star confided in him that he was worried about being hit with questions about his family in interviews. 'I'm embarrassed to say that I didn't even know who Sam was or who his family was until like six months into [filming],' Patrick admitted. 'He was, like, 'Oh, I hope they don't call me a nepo baby'. And I was, like, 'Why?'.'
