Speaking previously about Wright's screenplay, Powell told IndieWire: "The world that Edgar’s developed on this thing is just outrageous."
He continued: "It’s so good. And really, we’re just both such big fans of the Stephen King book [the movie is based on], and it’s going to be a great character. I’m so fired up about it."
"The fact that I get to work with him right now is just so damn cool," he added. "Edgar has also become a friend in the last few years. So that’s been really fun for us to finally get in the trenches together."
The Running Man is slated for release on November 7, 2025.
