The film that no longer stars Vince Vaughn
The artist formerly known as Wednesday Addams is on Speed. Speed Racer that is. And even then, I don’t know if she’s actually “on” Speed Racer or merely in the film.
Christina Ricci. “Speed Racer”. She’s snagged a part.
Ricci will play Trixie, Speed’s loyal and courageous girlfriend, who also proves to be a formidable ally both on and off the racetrack.
Warner’s man-in-the-know Jeff Robinov stated, “Christina Ricci is a young actress of extraordinary range, who has become a favorite of both critics and audiences in a wide variety of movies, from mainstream features to acclaimed indie films. She is an amazing talent and we think she is going to do a great job with the role of Trixie.”
The film, co-starring Emile Hirsch, John Goodman and Susan Sarandon, will follow the adventures of the young racecar driver Speed in his quest for glory on and off the track in his thundering Mach 5. And no, I’ve never seen it – but I do believe I have the DVD set around here somewhere.
