The new adaptation of Stephen King’s The Running Man from director Edgar Wright is finally hitting theaters. Co-written by Wright and Michael Bacall, the movie stars Glen Powell as Ben Richards, a man being hunted for money on the show “The Running Man.”
While Wright and Bacall’s adaptation is a significantly more faithful adaptation to King’s book than the 1987 film starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, it still has some slight changes that modernize Ben’s story and time on “The Running Man.” But the biggest change might be how the ending of both King’s book and the movie differ from one another.
