Jul 2 2007Richard Roundtree Joins Speed Racer
Richard Roundtree has scored a role in the Wachowskis' live-action adaptation of Speed Racer as Ben Burns, a former racer turned commentator, leaving me and the rest of the movie news community scrambling for a way to fit the acquisition of this part into the "Theme from Shaft" lyrics. I decided to try for the "he's a complicated man..." part.
He's a former racing man,
but now he is a racing commentator.
Ben Burns!
I guess that works.
