A whole car-load of new images from Nicolas Winding Refn’s Drive have been delivered courtesy of Collider.  The best thing about this batch is that in addition to more Ryan Gosling, we get our first good look at Carey Mulligan’s Irene (whose character was originally written for a slightly older Latina – probably along the lines of an Eva Mendes, I’m guessing) as well as pics of Bryan Cranston, Woody Harrelson, Ron Perlman, Christina Hendricks, Oscar Isaac and Albert Brooks.

Let the boys drool over the nubile Ms. Hendricks (and don’t get me wrong, she is gorgeous) or pine for the sweet Ms. Mulligan but, give me Oscar Isaac. (His character is called Standard Gabriel. If he’s “standard” where can I get one and what exactly is a non-standard Gabriel?) I’ve had my eye on this guy since Robin Hood and Body of Lies.  Juilliard trained and originally from Guatemala, he’s played everything from Syrian (Body of Lies) to Greek (Agora) to English (Robin Hood) to Nazarene (The Nativity Story) to Russian (PU-239) and everything in between. He has six films nearing completion for release for the end of 2011 and into 2012. I predict he’s going to be HUGE.

Following its North American debut at the Toronto International Film Festival, Drive opens September 16 in the US and 23 September in the UK.
