Glen Powell is taking on his biggest role yet: Ben Richards in Edgar Wright’s The Running Man. The Stephen King adaptation tell the tale of Ben, a father who is trying to get medicine for his sick daughter who ends up on a game show trying to run for his life.
I was lucky enough to speak with Powell about the role and one thing I found incredibly interesting about Ben Richards vs. Glen Powell is how Richards doesn’t necessarily care what people think about him. One of my favorite interviews Powell did recently was with Jake Shane on his Therapuss podcast. There, Powell talks about the social anxiety of leaving an event and second-guessing yourself and what you said to people.
