"Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" actor Alan Ritchson joins "Gods of Egypt" star Brenton Thwaites in the zombie action movie "Office Uprising." He seems to be ready for another action-packed stunt.

Ritchson will play Bob as one of the main casts in the "Office Uprising." According to The Hollywood Reporter, he joins Thwaites in a leading role Desmond, "Monster Trucks" actress Jane Levy as Samantha, "She Loves Me" actor Zachary Levi as Adam Nusbaum, and "Super Novas" actor Ian Harding as Nicholas Frohm.

The story of "Office Uprising" is set inside one of the world's leading arms manufacturers, Variety reported. A slacker is working at a major weapon manufacturing firm where a substance is slipped into the employees' drinks by the board of directors that supposedly makes them work more efficiently.

In the plot of "Office Uprising," the slacker finds that his co-workers have been weaponized by a new energy drink designed for the military. He fed the wrong formula to them, turning into homicidal maniacs. He must then set off to rescue himself, his friends, and his one true love from an office building full of psychotic co-workers armed with tomorrow's deadliest tech.

With a script by Ian Shorr and Peter Gamble Robinson, "Office Uprising" is directed by Lin Oeding who is a stunts veteran with credits on "Straight Outta Compton" and "Ant-Man." It is produced by "The Evil Gene" producer Giulia Prenna, Jim Steele, Sean Lydiard, and Will Clevinger.

Thwaites, Stephanie Pinola, and Chris Conover are executive producing "Office Uprising" with Dan Spilo as co-executive producer. The Exchange began selling international rights in February 2016 at the Berlin Film Festival as well as the American Film Markets.

Ritchson was most recently seen as Raphael in the two recent movies, namely, "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" and "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows" opposite Megan Fox. His other credits include "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire" as the Gloss character. He is represented by UTA, Industry Entertainment and Hansen, Jacobson.

"Office Uprising" has started filming in Alabama.
