New Need for Speed trailer

published 18 November 2013

Slow-motion car crashes? Check. Cars exploding on minimal impact? Check. Lines dripping in pathos, like "We'll settle this behind the wheel"? Check.

Yep, it can only be a new trailer for Need for Speed - though the same checks also apply for any Fast and Furious sequels.

Having just walked out of prison, framed for a crime he didn’t commit, street racer Tobey Marshall (Aaron Paul), is looking to settle a score. Surely he'll use the USA's superb justice system and bring his foe (Dominic Cooper) down in court? No, he's going to jump into an unrealistically powerful muscle car and run him off the road. Obviously.

And the less said about the "Yaw mama" joke the better.

As Content Director of Shortlist, Marc likes nothing more than to compile endless lists of an evening by candlelight. He started out life as a movie writer for numerous (now defunct) magazines and soon found himself online - editing a gaggle of gadget sites, including TechRadar, Digital Camera World and Tom's Guide UK. At Shortlist you'll find him mostly writing about movies and tech, so no change there then.
