Warner Bros. has sent over the first official poster for Speed Racer.
Movie Poster: Speed Racer
From writer/directors Larry and Andy Wachowski, the creators of the groundbreaking The Matrix trilogy, and producer Joel Silver comes the live-action, high-octane family adventure Speed Racer.
Hurtling down the track, careening around, over and through the competition, Speed Racer (Emile Hirsch) is a natural behind the wheel. Born to race cars, Speed is aggressive, instinctive and, most of all, fearless. His only real competition is the memory of the brother he idolized—the legendary Rex Racer—whose death in a race has left behind a legacy that Speed is driven to fulfill.
It might not show much, but the first poster definitely puts on display the necessities for racing. Leather, helmet, race car. All check.

Speed Racer opens to theaters on May 9th, 2008.
