Honestly I am not at all excited about seeing this image but I know that any hardcore fan of "Speed Racer" (are there any of you out there?) will be interested so it would be foolish of me not to share the first look at the Mach 5 from the upcoming Speed Racer adaptation as USA Today debuted the vehicle today.

The film stars Emile Hirsch in the title role and the accompanying USA Today article includes interviews with the star. Co-starring with Hirsch are Christina Ricci, Matthew Fox, Susan Sarandon and John Goodman. Speed Racer hits theaters on May 9, 2008.

Based on the classic series created by anime pioneer Tatsuo Yoshida, the live-action film will follow the adventures of the young race car driver Speed in his quest for glory on and off the track in his thundering Mach 5. In addition to Speed and Trixie, the movie will feature other characters that fans of the show will remember, including Speed's family and his mysterious arch-rival, Racer X.
