Can Glen Powell really headline a remake of an Arnold Schwarzenegger cult classic? The Running Man (2025) says “hell yes.” Jim and A.Ron talk updated themes, tightened storytelling, and an action style that turns Powell into a legitimate contender for the Bald Move Badass Rankings. If the original was a blood-soaked game show, this version is the prestige reboot — shaped by Edgar Wright's precise fingerprints. Hey there!

Send us a text about your favourite films relating to the episode.I know It's been a long wait for the podcast to return, but good things come to those who wait for a new Edgar Wright movie in the form of a new adaptation of Stephen Kings earlier books, The Running Man. As we have basically covered every Edgar Wright film in the past, we decided to do another Stephen King adaptations episode. Joining me to talk all this Stephen King is our current leader of the League of Podcasts, Matt from the Matt and Mark Movie Show. Warning we will be talking SPOILERSMatt to go first, and is going for Rob Reiners Misery that brought home a well deserved Oscar for Kathy Bates as Annie Wilkes. On this one we talk about how unpredictable this story is and how unpredictable Annie Wilkes can be too. We talk about how well Rob Reiner directs the film in a brilliantly simple way. We talk about how amazing both performances are in this film from Kathy Bates and James Caan. Plus we talk about big hammers.

Früher pfui und heute hui? Oder damals kein Hit und jetzt der Shit? Wir reden über FILME, DIE SICH VERBESSERT ODER VERSCHLECHTERT HABEN. Oder eben aus welchen Filmen wir raus- und in welche wir reingewachsen sind. Dafür haben Chris, André und Schröck jeweils ein paar Titel zusammen gesammelt, die einem solchen Wandel zum Opfer gefallen sind, so dass es unter anderem um TITANIC, STAR WARS: EPISODE 1, FORREST GUMP oder JAMES BOND: GOLDENEYE gehen wird. Oder um solche Werke wie SPAWN, GHOSTS OF MARS, ANACONDA, den viel zu oft übersehenen BUD AND DOYLE (BIODOME) wie auch ROBIN HOOD - HELDEN IN STRUMPFHOSEN und SHAUN OF THE DEAD. Liegt es nur am Alter? Liegt es an der Qualität? Oder hat es was mit dem Zeitgeist zu tun, warum wir manche dieser Streifen früher gut und heute schlecht finden oder jetzt deutlich mehr mögen als zum Zeitpunkt als wir sie das erste mal sahen. Und was haben dann auch noch solche Filme wie Terry Gilliams BRAZIL, GUYVER: DARK HERO, der berühmt-berüchtigte HALLOWEEN 6 oder SINGING IN THE RAIN in der Diskussion verloren. Findet es zusammen mit den Dreien heraus, die darüber hinaus auch noch wie immer das bequatschen, was sie zuletzt gesehen haben. Also zum Beispiel H3 - HALLOWEEN HORROR HOSTEL oder F1 und THE RUNNING MAN mit Arnold Schwarzenegger, den sich Daniel anlässlich von THE RUNNING MAN von Edgar Wright noch mal gegönnt hat. Und damit wären, mal abgesehen von ein paar weiteren, hier noch nicht genannten Produktionen, auch schon wieder durch für diese Woche. Etienne lässt sich leider entschuldigen, der war leider krank. Daher um so wichtiger: Bleibt bitte so gesund wie gut drauf und viel Spaß im Kino, auf der Couch oder mit dieser Folge. Tschüssi. Rocket Beans wird unterstützt von fritz-kola.

Adam discusses Edgar Wright's remake of The Running Man, ironically enough, released by Paramount.
The Running Man is a new dystopian thriller starring Glen Powell as a man so desperate for money to care for his family that he volunteers to run for his life. As a contestant on a TV game show, he must survive for 30 days while being hunted by a group of highly skilled assassins and by his fellow citizens. Based on a Stephen King novel, director Edgar Wright brings in an all-star cast including Lee Pace, Colman Domingo, William H. Macy and Michael Cera.Follow Pop Culture Happy Hour on Letterboxd at letterboxd.com/nprpopcultureLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
Sean and Amanda are joined by Van Lathan to cover two new releases that they collectively had mixed feelings about. Before diving in, though, they theorize about why the fall movie slate has been such a huge disappointment both commercially and critically and what it represents for the industry at large going forward (0:34). Then, they break down Edgar Wright's new action film, ‘The Running Man,' starring Glen Powell, which they found deeply messy but also full of impressively staged action scenes (28:01). Next, they unpack the new magician legacy sequel ‘Now You See Me: Now You Don't,' starring Jesse Eisenberg and Dave Franco. They explain their personal relationship with the original films and why Rosamund Pike was born to play an evil diamond heiress villain, and they hypothesize about what its potential box office chances are (59:23). Finally, Edgar Wright joins Sean to discuss the evolving landscape of studio filmmaking, how he constructs an elaborate action set piece, and the amazing story about how Powell was cast for the lead part (1:15:55).

This week's episode of the Empire Podcast would surely deserve to get a full fat five points from Greg Davies, the Taskmaster himself, as Chris Hewitt, Helen O'Hara, James Dyer, and John Nugent apply themselves wholeheartedly (some more wholeheartedly than others, it must be said) to deciding which Taskmaster contestant has appeared in the best film. Then, the podteam take a look at the week's movie news and, in a bumper reviews section, cast their eyes over Edgar Wright's The Running Man, Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein, Ruben Fleischer's Now You See Me: Now You Don't, Julia Ducournau's Alpha, Gurinder Chadha's Christmas Karma, and James Vanderbilt's Nuremberg. Three of those movies provide this week's guests, as Edgar Wright drops by the podbooth to natter with Chris about The Running Man, and meeting Stephen King; [21:43 - 33:05 approx] Now You Three Me's Isla Fisher and Rosamund Pike talk magic and manky accents, again with Chris; [56:16 - 1:09:05 approx] and Michael Shannon talks Nuremberg and (mostly) R.E.M., also with Chris. [1:42:53 - 1:55:38 approx] Oh, and there's a huge revelation about the pod itself lurking within there somewhere. Forget what you think you know... and enjoy.

We're still here! And we're ready to review the new film adaptation of The Running Man. Richard Bachman's/Stephen King's dystopian thriller novel has been adapted before as a classic 80s action flick starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, but will it be even cooler with Edgar Wright directing and Glen Powell starring in it? That's what Kent and Zack are ready to let you know. Joel hasn't seen the movie yet, so he'll be leaving before the spoilers begin, but we invite you to join us as we hunt him down! Stop filming me and press play.

This is the first of two bonus episodes with total legends in quick succession. Tune in to find out who's next ...

The Megan-Dave dynamic duo returns with two new movies, Edgar Wright's THE RUNNING MAN (2:15) and Richard Linklater's NOUVELLE VAGUE (25:41). Dave didn't see THE RUNNING MAN but he was able to fill Megan in on the difference between Stephen King's novel and the 1987 Arnold Schwarzenegger film. But how did Megan like Wright's version? Eh...she didn't love it. (But she did love Colman Domingo, so there's that.) As for NOUVELLE VAGUE, Megan and Dave return to the age-old question: Who is this movie for? Aside from a Linklater fan or someone steeped in French New Wave cinema, does anyone really want to see a cutesy black and white take on the making of Jean-Luc Godard's BREATHLESS? Over on Patreon, we discuss the 1991 romantic drama MISSISSIPPI MASALA, which was directed by New York City mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani's mother, Mira Nair.

Desperate for money to save his sick daughter, Ben Richards (Glen Powell) is convinced by the show's ruthless producer to enter the game as a last resort. Ratings soon skyrocket as Ben's defiance, instincts and grit turn him into an unexpected fan favorite, as well as a threat to the entire system. We break down all things from Schwarzenegger Dollars, Edgar Wright sensibilities, and finally making Glen Powell and thing.

Sam Clements talks to writer and director Edgar Wright about his new film, the action-packed adaptation of Stephen King's The Running Man, in cinemas now. In a near-future society, The Running Man is the top-rated show on television—a deadly competition where contestants, known as Runners, must survive 30 days while being hunted by professional assassins, with every move broadcast to a bloodthirsty public and each day bringing a greater cash reward. Desperate to save his sick daughter, working-class Ben Richards (Glen Powell) is convinced by the show's charming but ruthless producer, Dan Killian (Josh Brolin), to enter the game as a last resort. But Ben's defiance, instincts, and grit turn him into an unexpected fan favourite—and a threat to the entire system.

Film Běžící muž je akční sci-fi snímek a zároveň satira na společnost a média. Podle předlohy Stephena Kinga ho natočil režisér Edgar Wright. „Hodnotím ho jako velmi průměrné dílo současného Hollywoodu. Jako film, na kterém je vidět, že hodně zestárla předloha z 80. let. Přece jenom některé věci už v současné popkultuře stihly Běžícího muže předběhnout, protože žijeme v audiovizi několik let po masivním úspěchu Hry na oliheň,“ říká filmový kritik Pavel Sladký.

RIGHT OUT OF THEATER For The Running Man Review! Greg Alba & Coy Jandreau step out of the theater to talk about Edgar Wright's bold new adaptation of Stephen King's novel The Running Man—a film that fuses the bleak dystopian tone of the book with the pop-energy of the Arnold Schwarzenegger 1987 cult classic. The Running Man (1987) Reaction: • THE RUNNING MAN (1987) MOVIE REACTION!! Fi... Baby Driver Reaction: • BABY DRIVER (2017) IS A GROOVY BADASS RIDE... Scott Pilgrim Vs the World Reaction: • SCOTT PILGRIM VS. THE WORLD (2010) MOVIE R... Shaun Of The Dead Reaction: • SHAUN OF THE DEAD (2004) IS NEAR PERFECT!!... We dive into everything from pacing, tone, satire, and worldbuilding to the film's commentary on surveillance, AI manipulation, class divides, and the nature of modern reality-entertainment. We discuss the full cast: Glen Powell (Top Gun: Maverick, Anyone But You, Hit Man), Ben Affleck (The Town, Argo, Gone Girl), Josh Brolin (Avengers: Infinity War, No Country for Old Men, Dune), Colman Domingo (Euphoria, Rustin, Ma Rainey's Black Bottom), Michael Cera (Superbad, Barbie, Scott Pilgrim), and Victoria Cartagena (The Batman, Gotham, You). Greg & Coy talk about Powell's grounded take on rage and survival, Domingo's flamboyant menace, Cera playing totally against type, and how Wright balances satire with darker, bleaker sequences pulled straight from King's vision. We explore the film's biggest swings, its “spoonful of sugar vs. heavy commentary” tonal struggle, how the action compares to Edgar Wright's signature kinetic style, the dystopian world's similarity to our own, and whether the movie delivers the emotional punch it's reaching for. We compare its approach to the 1987 film, discuss what it keeps, what it updates, and why the film sometimes feels torn between King's novel and ‘80s homage. Whether you're searching for Running Man 2025 explained, Edgar Wright new movie review, Stephen King adaptation reactions, or Glen Powell Running Man breakdown, this review covers pacing, characters, themes, action, and everything fresh out of the theater.
