Does anyone actually care about this movie? Speed Racer never struck me as a property with the level of nostalgia of a Ninja Turtles (or even a Power Rangers for that matter), but considering the wealth of material I see about it on the Internet, apparently there's a few fans out there.
Anyway, this news is for you. John Goodman and Susan Sarandon have signed on to the Wachowski Brothers' big-screen adaptation, to star as Speed Racer's parents, Pops and Mom Racer.
This comes after reports following Emile Hirsch's casting that the film would be rated G. That's a stark contrast from the Wachowski's past films, such as the Matrix trilogy and Bound. |
