Speed Racer hits the UK


Speed Racer hits the UK

The stars of the latest Wachowski brothers offering Speed Racer, have hit the red carpet in London's Leicester Square.Although the rain put off Brit actor Roger Allam, who said the London premiere was "a far cry from the premiere in LA", Hollywood stars such as John Goodman and Christina Ricci made an appearance.However, it was a no-show for the notoriously secretive directors the Wachowski brothers.John Goodman and Susan Saradon both star alongside new US actor Emile Hirsch as his parents in this film adaptation of the 1960s Japanese animated series.The whole movie was filmed in front of a greenscreen instead of on an actual set and John Goodman said seing the finished product for the first time was "pretty amazing."The film opens nationwide on May 9.
