Speed (1994) TAKE 2

Pop quiz, hotshot… What if Speed had taken a different route? This 1994 adrenaline-fueled thrill ride cemented Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock as 90s icons, but it almost looked a lot different. On this episode, we’re hitting the REWIND button and taking a second look at the film for the podcast, diving even deeper into alternate casting choices, behind-the-scenes near-misses, and the wild ‘what ifs’ that could have changed the movie forever. From script rewrites that transformed a simple action flick into one of the decade’s most pulse-pounding hits, to the moments that made it an instant classic, we dig into how Speed raced into film history… and what might’ve happened if it had taken a wrong turn.
