While we’ve all been warned about strangers in cars pulling up alongside us as kids, it appears EA’s video-game series, NEED FOR SPEED, has done just that with it’s big-screen adaptation set to be helmed by ACT OF VALOR’s Scott Waugh. Scott ‘Kid Cudi’ Mescudi has joined the cast of what’s expected to rival the FAST & FURIOUS franchise. The former rapper/hippoty-hop star – if my research is correct – was responsible for such woeful-sounding shite as ‘Day ‘n’ Nite’ and ‘Make Her Say’. Any Good? That was a rhetorical question by the way.
Hopefully, he won’t spoil an already decent cast with BREAKING BAD’s Aaron Paul headlining, alongside Imogen Poots, Dominic Cooper, Ramon Rodriguez, Rami Malek and Harrison Gilbertson. NEED FOR SPEED is being developed by Dreamworks and will drive into cinemas on the 7th February 2014.

Craig was our great north east correspondent, proving that it’s so ‘grim up north’ that losing yourself in a world of film is a foregone prerequisite. He has been studying the best (and often worst) of both classic and modern cinema at the University of Life for as long as he can remember. Craig’s favorite films include THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION, JFK, GOODFELLAS, SCARFACE, and most of John Carpenter’s early work, particularly THE THING and HALLOWEEN.
