This post contains potential spoilers For the "running man".

The new trailer for the film adaptation of Edgar Wright to "The Running Man" by Steven King has been scattered online, and as the 1987 version starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, it seems to be moving in the very funniest and easier direction of the book it adapts.

Set in the not -so -distant future, Glenn Powell is played by Ben Richards, a lowered soul, who is reported to be a competitor to a popular and bloody Gamshu, called a "working man". The match requires our hero to overcome a band hunters tasked with following and killing Richards, everything for the sake of a live party. If he surpassed his pursuers, Richards could go further with the burden of money to help his seriously ill daughter.

In the 1987 film, which stands between The better half of Steven King's adaptations (though of course None of Schwarzenegger's best films), the family element was absent. Instead, Richards has been turned into a former military officer who has opposed orders to kill civilians. Therefore, our hero is thrown into a golden nonsense, which was just as dirt as the one -way that spat on every successful murder. But what both movie versions seem to have in common is that they seem to emit some of the fastest parts of the book, and instead add a little more pip to this man.

Steven King's original book (written under the pseudonym Richard Bachmann) predicts a future (randomly set in 2025) which was so dystopian, the protagonist's wife turns to prostitution to pay for their daughter's medicine. The challenge of a person's running match is also even stronger for Richards, who is drastically out of shape, unlike Powell and his muscle predecessor on the screen. It may also be too early to say, but the end of the book, which was also left out of the 1987 version, seems unlikely to work well with what Wright appears here.

(Warning: Spoilers For the original novel below.)

King's original story ends up on a deeply unusual note when Richards learns that his wife and daughter were killed by the company to organize the competition. Because nothing left to lose, our hero kidnapped an aircraft and crashed into the corporate building of the network, causing an explosion described in the book as "lighting the night like the anger of God, and was raining twenty blockade". Yikes.

It is clear that Wright does not aim to replicate something outdated, fulfilled the 1987 film action, but we can't wait to see Powell's charm of full view and ***-Eating a smile through the face of Oshosh Brolin as executive producer Dan Kilian. For a more daunting race for King orchestrated, Wait for the "Long Walk" adaptation to hit theaters on September 12, 2025. As for the "running man", get ready, set and go, see it when it arrives in theaters on November 7, 2025.
