The Mach 5 From Speed Racer
Reported by Jay Cochran - 10:04 PM 2007.06.19
Warner Bros. unveils the Mach 5 from the upcoming Summer 2008 film, Speed Racer.
The green flag drops on May 9th when Speed Racer makes his big screen debut in the newest project from writer/directors Larry and Andy Wachowski, the creators of the groundbreaking The Matrix trilogy, and producer Joel Silver. A live-action, high-octane family adventure based on the classic series created by anime pioneer Tatsuo Yoshida, the big-screen Speed Racer will follow the adventures of the young race car driver Speed (Emile Hirsch) in his quest for glory in his thundering Mach 5. It will feature other characters that fans of the show will remember, including Mom (Susan Sarandon) and Pops Racer (John Goodman), girlfriend Trixie (Christina Ricci) and his mysterious arch-rival, Racer X (Matthew Fox). “The Wachowski brothers said to me one day that they were always disturbed that their nieces and nephews could never see their movies. This was the first time all their friends, family and the kids in their lives could see one of their films. They wrote a pure family movie. It’s fun. It’s got great characters, great dialogue, and great stories,” said Silver. Also see: Warner Bros. Consumer Products Names Mattel Global Toy Licensee for Speed Racer and The Dark Knight
