‘Lights’ actor gets some ‘Speed’

By Chris Garcia | Wednesday, June 6, 2007, 03:07 PM

Zap2it.com reports that Scott Porter of the Austin-shot “Friday Night Lights” will co-star in the Wachowski brothers’ feature “Speed Racer.”

He’ll reportedly play Rex, the older brother of Speed, played by Emile Hirsch. The remake of the classic kid cartoon, shooting this month in Germany, also stars John Goodman, Susan Sarandon and Matthew Fox.
