Aaron Paul And His Co-Stars Talk Getting Into Gear For "Need For Speed"

Check it out before Need For Speed zooms into theaters this Friday.

When Need For Speed zooms into theatres this Friday, all eyes will be on Aaron Paul. The Breaking Bad star is taking on his first major lead role and with the weight of a rather large franchise on his shoulders, the pressure is certainly on.

In the film, he plays Tobey Marshall, a car mechanic who spends his free time drag racing with his friend. When a tragic accident occurs and he's framed for a crime that he did not commit, Marshall is sentenced to several years in prison and there's nothing he can do about it. After serving his time and being released, he vows to get revenge on the man who put him away, famous race car driver Dino Brewster.

Last weekend in LA, our friends at We Got This Covered sat down with Paul, as well as his co-stars and director, for an exclusive video interview. Among other things, they discussed how great the chemistry was on set, Kid Cudi's improvements as an actor, Paul's reaction when he first got the script, and more.

Check it out above and be sure to catch Need For Speed when it hits theatres this Friday!
