Christina Ricci Takes Some Speed

 

Christina Ricci and her five-head will star in the big-screen version of "Speed Racer" opposite Emile Hirsch. Christina will play Trixie to Emile's Speed. The live-action film of the classic cartoon will follow Speed in his quest for car-racing glory.

 

John Goodman and Susan Sarandon will play Speed's parents.

 

The film is being written and directed by The Wachowski Brothers, best known for the "Matrix" movies.

 

Speed Racer will be released May 9, 2008.

 

This will most likely suck hardcore, but I can dig it. Christina is perfect casting if you ask me. I love this disco ball head.
