You may have seen a few tiny pics from the Wachowski brothers’ upcoming Speed Racer live action film elsewhere on the web today.
Well, our colleagues over at Cinematical gave us the hook up and provided Autoblog with the only high-res shots you’ll find on the web, along with an exclusive look at the first trailer for the film (click here to view).
It’s so new, we literally didn’t have a chance to watch it before publishing this post. If you’re unfamiliar with the story of Speed Racer, we’ll let Cinematical’s Erik Davis explain:
Speed Racer stars Emile Hirsch as the aspiring race car driver Speed, who, with help from his family (Mom and Pops played by Susan Sarandon and John Goodman), his girlfriend Trixie (Christina Ricci) and a little chimp named Chim Chim, builds the unstoppable Mach 5 and teams with the mysterious Racer X (Matthew Fox) to win the death-defying, cross-country rally known as The Crucible in order to save his family’s business and beat the evil Royalton at his own game.

Wow, this trailer sucked. I mean I lierally hate this movie now. This trailer has made me not wanting to watch this movie ever in my lifetime
I thought it was pretty good. I loved the cartoon we’ll see about the movie.
No way I will pay money to see this.
yup sucks ass . to much non realistic effects.
Those CG models would’ve been awesome fifteen years ago.
“to much non realistic effects?” What the hell? It’s based on a cartoon. How in the world is that even realistic?
Either way, the movie looks amazing and it’s great to see that it’s not taking itself too seriously.
