Wow. I can’t believe I got excited when I heard some image from Speed Racer had leaked online. “Cast in costume,” they said. “Exciting,” they said. “Humbug,” say I.
The picture making the rounds online isn’t some action shot of Speedy (Emile Hirsch) and Racer X (Matthew Fox) facing off. It’s not a cool image of the cast together. Hell, it’s not even a candid image of the cast. Instead we get John Goodman with a mustache in a blue shirt with his stunt double (picture at right). Yee-haw.
Don’t get me wrong – I like John Goodman and from what I’ve seen he’s perfectly cast as Pops, father of Speed Racer. It’s just not much of a leak. It’s actually not much of a picture either. We need someone else to accuse the Wachowskis of beating up monkeys to heat things up around this picture, because this kind of thing is barely newsworthy.
The picture came to our attention via JoBlo, who found the image on Cinematirx, some sort of Hungarian movie blog.

I cant look at him without flashing to the Family Guy sequence of the Goodman household at Thanksgiving... awesome.
Sad part is he had lost a lot of weight. too bad he put it all back on.
