Edgar Wright Rebooting The Running Man With Glen Powell
Glen Powell (Top Gun: Maverick) is set to star in Paramount's upcoming action film, The Running Man. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Powell will take on the lead role in the adaptation of Stephen King's novel, directed by Edgar Wright (Shaun of the Dead, Baby Driver).
Wright, who has been attached to the project since 2021, will also produce the film alongside Nira Park and Simon Kinberg. Wright co-wrote the story with Michael Bacall (21 Jump Street), with Bacall handling the script.

The story, originally published in 1982 under King's pseudonym Richard Bachman, is set in a dystopian America and follows a man who joins a deadly game show in a desperate attempt to secure funds for his sick daughter.
