Members Jailcante Posted February 19, 2021 Members Report Share Posted February 19, 2021 Edgar Wright To Direct Stephen King’s ‘The Running Man’ At Paramount Pictures; Simon Kinberg’s Genre Films Producing EXCLUSIVE: Paramount Pictures is making a deal with Edgar Wright to develop to direct a new adaptation of The Running Man, the futuristic novel by Stephen King that the author first published under the pseudonym Richard Bachman. This won’t be a remake of the 1987 film that starred Arnold Schwarzenegger; the Baby Driver writer/director will co-write the story with Michael Bacall, and they will be much more faithful to King’s bestselling novel. Bacall will write the script. Simon Kinberg and Audrey Chon will produce through his Genre Films banner, alongside Nira Park from Wright’s Complete Fiction banner. Kinberg brought the idea to Emma Watts, based on their long relationship, and then Kinberg courted Wright. While the filmmaker is very selective, the prospect of a new The Running Man is one that has intrigued him; to the point that when asked if he could remake any film, he would choose that one. This was back in 2017. Now it has become real. https://deadline.com/2021/02/edgar-wright-direct-the-running-man-stephen-king-paramount-pictures-simon-kinbergs-genre-films-1234697279/ Edgar Wright vai dirigir e co-roteirizar o livro 'The Running Man' do Stephen King (que ele escreveu sob alcunha de Richard Bachman). Livro já tinha ganhado uma adaptação em 1987 no filme estrelado pelo Arnold Schwarzenegger, por aqui chamado 'O Sobrevivente'.

Members Questão Posted March 3, 2021 Members Report Share Posted March 3, 2021 Wright adaptando King? Intrigante. Até por que a versão do Scharza basicamente pegava só o nome e a premissa básica do livro do King pra fazer um filme de ação brucutu oitentista.
