The official release of Need for Speed the movie is a little more than three weeks away, and the hype is really starting to ramp up. After a few trailers, some teased photos, and a couple hints about the cars, a couple of the actors decided to get a little more interactive with its audience, coinciding with the sneak preview of the film. Those actors were none other than Kid Cudi and Aaron Paul. Both of them decided to do AMAs last night on Reddit and Twitter, answering a large range of questions about their personal lives, the movies, and everything in between. Here is what we learned:
