For fans of the original Death Race 2000 film, at least one of that film's stars will appear in the remake for sure. MTV Movies Blog recently spoke with Death Race director Paul W.S. Anderson who confirmed that the original film's star David Carradine will indeed make a cameo in the remake.

"I wanted to tip my hat to the original, but also wouldn't want it to become a cheesy cameo-fest," said Anderson. "There's obviously been, 'Oh, where's the David Carradine cameo?' It's there, and I think it's a nice thing for fans. In fact, I had a conversation with David about the movie this morning."

Death Race is due in theaters on August 22 and you can for the film's trailer.
