Aaron Paul Shows Reckless Side in 'Need for Speed'

Published

Fans will see Aaron Paul like they've never seen him before in Need for Speed, but the 34-year-old actor explained that his character in the movie isn't that far removed from himself.

"We both like to drive really fast and maybe somewhat recklessly," said Paul, describing a hefty chunk of the movie.

In the film, Aaron plays Tobey Marshall, a blue-collar mechanic and muscle-car street racer who finds himself behind bars for a crime he didn't commit. Two years later, Tobey is released and set on revenge, looking to enact his plan during the high-stakes De Leon, aka the Super Bowl of underground racing.

Watch the video to hear what Aaron had to say about the movie's steamy love story.

Need for Speed, out March 14, also stars Dominic Cooper, Imogen Poots and Scott "Kid Cudi" Mescudi.
