Terrified racer Matthew Fox
Matthew Fox found filming 'Speed Racer' terrifying.
The 43-year-old actor says shooting the Hollywood blockbuster was an "intense" experience, but is delighted directors the Wachowski brothers made him look good in leather.
Fox Said: "There were moments where I said, 'wow, this is pretty intense.' Honestly, this is one of the most terrifying experiences I've ever had. There are so many ways that wearing a leather suit can be very bad. But I had complete faith in the directors."
Fox says 'Matrix' creators the Wachowski brothers helped him visualise the world they were developing for the film.
He said: "I was trying to create this mysterious thing with a voice that was sort of anime. The way Larry and Andy wrote Racer X's dialogue, and the rhythm of his speech, gave me all these hints. You're just gathering hints as much as you possibly can. They did an amazing job of bringing those elements to me so that I could understand it."
