Sneak Preview of Speed Racer Movie

Monday May 5, 2008
If you're counting the days until the live-action Speed Racer movie hits your local theater, then this post is for you: IGN Entertainment is streaming a 3 minute sneak peek just for its devoted fans.

The Speed Racer live-action movie is a remake of the original classic anime done by none other than the Wachowski brothers. Featuring Emile Hirsch as Speed himself, plus Christina Ricci (Trixie), John Goodman (Pops), Susan Sarandon (Speed's mom) and Matthew Fox as the mysterious Racer X, the live-action Speed Racer movie promises to deliver an old anime favorite in some new, high-tech CGI digs. And let's not forget the Mach 5 - its the best thing for car fans since Knightrider's "Kit".

For more Speed Racer info, check out the official Warner Bros. website. Speed Racer opens in theaters across the States on May 9th.
