Here's the most compelling reason we've seen to become an actor to date: You get to make a movie all about your car. Eric Bana of Hulk, Troy and Star Trek fame has made a documentary, The Beast, about the 1974 Ford Falcon GT coupe he has owned for the last 25 years.
Jeremy Clarkson, Jay Leno and even Dr. Phil, along with Bana's close friends, make appearances in the film to reflect on why Bana is so obsessed with this car. Naturally, the obsession is traceable in part to Bana having seen Mel Gibson drive a Pursuit Special version of a '73 XB Falcon GT hardtop in Mad Max.
Here's the trailer for the The Beast. You can watch the whole movie on Speed this Friday at 8 p.m. Eastern (5 p.m. Pacific).
