A mechanic who moonlights as an underground race-car driver strives to take the top prize in America's most prominent
street race in order to have his revenge against the ambitious
ex-NASCAR champ who had him framed and sent to prison. Inspired by the
popular video-game franchise of the same name, Need for Speed tells the
story of garage owner Tobey Marshall (Aaron Paul). Desperate to keep his
family-owned business afloat, Marshall forms an uncomfortable
partnership with wealthy ex-NASCAR star Dino Brewster (Dominic Cooper).
That partnership falls apart when a lucrative sale to car broker Julia
Bonet (Imogen Poots) fails to pan out, and unscrupulous Brewster uses a
tragic street-racing mishap to have the innocent Marshall incarcerated.
Released from prison two years later, the vengeful Marshall plots to
prove his mettle by winning the De Leon -- an illicit race showcasing
the country's top underground talents. But getting to the De Leon will
be no simple task, because not only has the ruthless Brewster put a
bounty on Marshall's prized car, but the police are hot on his trail
during the white-knuckle, coast-to-coast dash. Fortunately for Marshall,
his loyal crew and Bonet are willing to help him get to the starting
line in time for the big race. Scott "Kid Cudi" Mescudi, Ramon
Rodriguez, and Michael Keaton co-star
