Paramount is in the process of setting and changing a number of its 2025 release dates. They also confirmed the release date for the Glen Powell-led The Running Man.
Running Man Remake Release Update
The biggest news from the changes is that The Running Man will now premiere on November 21, 2025, where it will presumably go head-to-head with Wicked: Part Two during one of the busiest periods of the holiday season.
The film will be directed by Edgar Wright, from a script written by Michael Bacall. No word yet on the film, but it will be a new adaptation of Stephen King's classic 1982 novel, which itself was made into a 1987 film starring Arnold Schwarzenegger.
In addition to the Running Man remake, Paramount has changed the release dates for several films. Starting in 2024, their September 5 is being moved to a limited release on November 29, 2024, before a wider release on December 13, 2024. The film was previously set for a November 27 release, but has been pushed back slightly.
