Lost's Doctor Goes To Race Speed

Lost's Matthew Fox, who plays Jack Shepherd on the show, is going to play "Racer X" in the new live action Speed Racer film. The film stars Emile Hirsch as Speed. Other cast members include Christina Ricci, Susan Sarandon and John Goodman. The film is due next year and directed by The Matrix Trilogy directors, and "V for Vendetta" writers, the Wachowski Brothers.
Very intersting casting. Lots of big names, with Hirsch not really being one of them. I'm a bit more excited about the movie due to the casting alone. It looks like Fox is really hoping to expand his career from Lost. And John Goodman? Haven't seen him in awhile.
