Speed is a 1994 American action thriller film directed by Jan de Bont in his feature directorial debut, and written by Graham Yost.

The plot centers on a city bus rigged by an ex-cop turned vengeful extortionist Howard Payne (Hopper) to explode if its speed drops below 50 miles per hour (80 km/h).
