The Running Man director Edgar Wright has revealed the key difference between his new action-packed Stephen King adaptation and other action-thrillers like John Wick and Kill Bill.
"This has as much suspense as action, because you’re in a movie where your lead character is trying not to attract attention," Wright told SFX magazine. "It isn’t a film where he’s running into a crowd and beating everybody up. That would be ill-advised. But it does feel intense because you’re with him the entire way and you’re experiencing the developments of the story as he is. We don’t cut back to the studio audience or the baddies. We stay with Ben, we only see what he sees."
