Matthew Fox Net » LOSTLOS ANGELES — Count reclusive Matrix creators Larry and Andy Wachowski among Lost’s obsessive fans. So when it came time to cast the role of mystery man Racer X in their adaptation of the 1960s Japanese anime series Speed Racer, they naturally braked for Matthew Fox. “I didn’t know Speed Racer at all,” Fox admits. “I went into the meeting (with the Wachowskis) never knowing anything about Speed Racer. I wanted to work with the Wachowskis. That meeting went great and I went home with a script and I got the source material and watched a lot of Speed Racer. And the script blew me away. Then I went after the role. I went back to L.A. and I really went after it. I wanted it.” Comments: 1
When Matthew Fox began accepting movie roles in addition to his work on ABC’s Lost, he thought he might have taken on more than he could handle. But after his experience shooting the action feature Vantage Point, in which he plays a Secret Service agent trying to protect the president (William Hurt), he doesn’t feel so lost anymore. He offered his thoughts on a growing TV and movie career. Your Vantage Point character, Kent Taylor, has an interesting twist to who he is. Is that one of the reasons you wanted to do Vantage Point?
