Edgar Wright gives update on The Running Man, says the reboot will be faithful to Stephen King’s novel

The Running Man.

Edgar Wright's reboot of The Running Man is still a go – and the filmmaker says it'll be a faithful adaptation of Stephen King's original novel.

"The Running Man is something that is in active development," Wright told the Happy Sad Confused Podcast. "Why is that interesting to me? It’s like, I like the film but I like the book more, and they didn’t really adapt the book. Even as a teenager when I saw the Schwarzenegger film I was like, 'Oh, this isn’t like the book at all!' And I think, 'Nobody’s done that book.'"
