The Running Man trailer: Edgar Wright adds comedy to Stephen King's sci-fi dystopia


There's a trailer for Edgar Wright's remake of The Running Man. It looks pretty nifty.

The 1980s film, which was based on a novel by Stephen King, chronicled a game show in which prisoners had to survive in an abandoned section of Los Angeles while being chased by lethal assassins. Glen Powell ( Top Gun: Maverick) replaces Schwarzenegger and Colman Domingo stands in for the iconic Richard Dawson as the nefarious game show host. The rest of the cast includes Josh Brolin, Michael Cera, William H. Macy, Jayme Lawson and Lee Pace.
