First Images From the Need for Speed Movie
DreamWorks' upcoming adaptation of the EA video game.
DreamWorks has released the first two official images from their big screen version of the EA video game Need for Speed, neither of which actually feature cars.
Breaking Bad's Aaron Paul leads the cast, which includes Michael Keaton, Dominic Cooper, Imogen Poots, Kid Cudi, and future Fifty Shades of Grey star Dakota Johnson.
''Dominic is kind of the antagonist of the film,'' Paul explains to Entertainment Weekly. ''Dakota is my character's ex, and now Dominic's character is the new guy she's seeing.''
Kid Cudi as "Benny" and Aaron Paul as "Tobey Marshall" in Need for Speed.
Dominic Cooper as "Dino Brewster" and Dakota Johnson as "Anita" in Need for Speed.
Here's the official plot synopsis: "Need for Speed marks an exciting return to the great car culture films of the 1960s and ’70s, tapping into what makes the American myth of the open road so appealing. The story chronicles a near-impossible cross-country journey for our heroes—one that begins as a mission for revenge, but proves to be one of redemption."
Need for Speed, directed by Act of Valor's Scott Waugh, opens March 14, 2014.

She was in 28 Weeks Later wasn't she? From her name I always assumed she was a bit posh.

Straight to DVD

Still makes more sense than a Gran Turismo movie.

It's based on a series of games with an underground street racing culture where vehicles get chased by cops & raced against each other for the pink slip. All scenarios more appealing to a general movie going audience than racing around a track.

So isn't this appealing?

Mind you, the racing aspects of this is based on F1, not boring oval track racing -
Nothing about that movie looks interesting at all to me personally. But then again I don't really like Ron Howard movies and I think that Thor guy is a pretty mediocre actor. We'll see how the general public receives it once it's box office numbers come in but somehow I doubt it will be doing The Fast & The Furious numbers.

I wouldn't expect F&F fans to like this movie. But the racing world would. This revolves around a legend (Niki Lauda) and a rookie's rise ...... similar to GT.
F&F is totally different type of movie. -

F&F is also much more comparable to NFS than it is to GT. Hence my point about something like NFS having much greater commercial appeal with the general movie going public. -
For a movie called "Need for Speed" I ain't seen not one picture of you know, a car. Or even a race, perhaps.
