If you hadn't heard, Dreamworks is making a movie based on EA's long-running videogame racing series Need for Speed, directed by Act of Valor co-director and former Hollywood stuntman Scott Waugh, and staring Breaking Bad's Aaron Paul as the film's central antihero.
Fresh from prison, a street racer who was framed by a wealthy business associate joins a cross country race with revenge in mind. His ex-partner, learning of the plan, places a massive bounty on his head as the race begins.
Whether the movie will be any good is anyone's guess, but as far as trailers go, this one isn't too shabby.
Need for Speed is set to hit US theatres on March 14th 2014.
I hope Aaron Paul's career really takes off, he deserves it after his amazing performance in Breaking Bad.
Not doing himself any favours by making this his first major role since the show. Kinda needed to find something that drastically set him apart from Pinkman because it's hard to imagine this letting himself be defined as something other than someone that frowns and says b**** really well.
This news post even calls him Jesse Pinkman in the title; as I'm sure many others will. Maybe he's not interested in being considered a serious actor but if so he badly needs to break away from that persona.

"You'll never beat me on the streets"
"Why's that home boy?"
"You're quick on the pedal but you're braking bad"
