Imogen Poots Joins Aaron Paul In NEED FOR SPEED

HeatVision reports that British actress Imogen Poots (Cracks, King of Cups, 28 Weeks Later, Fright Night) has landed the female lead in Dreamwork's Need For Speed. Said to be inspired by car films of 70's, it's based on the video game franchise. It already has Aaron Paul (Smashed, Breaking Bad) attached to star. You might remember that Paul had been in the running for role of John McClane Jr. in A Good Day To Die Hard. Poots was recently linked for the female lead in Captain America: The Winter Soldier which seems unlikely now.
