Need For Speed Trailer Released

As if one action-driven racing blockbuster in 2014 wasn't enough, EA have their own entry up their sleeves...
Walt Disney Studios and Dreamworks Studios have today released the first trailer for their upcoming racing blockbuster film Fast &...sorry, Need For Speed. Adapted loosely from EA Games' bestselling franchise, the newest video game incarnation of which will launch with Need For Speed: Rivals later this year, the movie will star Dominic Cooper, Michael Keaton and Dakota Johnson.

If that rather underwhelming cast line-up was the most potentially destructive part of the motion picture version, then this writer's worries for the flick wouldn't be so prominent. However, that Fast & Furious gag which I opened the piece with is extremely relevant in all honesty, the aforementioned Paramount franchise hitting its seventh entry in 2014 and likely to perform exceedingly well. Recent sub-par efforts such as John Carter and The Lone Ranger have proved that the Disney tag alone won't carry a film anymore, so the initial portents aren't quite as promising as the studio might have hoped!

Need For Speed drifts into cinemas worldwide on March 14th, 2014.
