Storyline

The Running Man (2025) is a dystopian action thriller where Ben Richards (Glen Powell) enters a deadly televised “run” designed to entertain a broken society. In this reimagining of The Running Man by Stephen King, Richards must survive being pursued by ruthless hunters across the country for 30 days while the public watches and bets on his downfall.

Why It’s Our Vibe

Directed by Edgar Wright, this remake elevates the original’s gritty premise with high-octane set pieces and sharp social commentary. Glen Powell brings charisma and tension to the lead role, while the stylized visuals, relentless pace, and underlying critique of media spectacle make the film as thrilling as it is thought-provoking.
