One remake of a Stephen King movie more than 36 years later could not only be the next Squid Game, but possibly beat its success with a modern update.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT An update for Stephen King's Running Man remake has arrived decades after the '80s classic that starred Arnold Schwarzenegger and promises to beat Squid Game at its own game.
Why The Running Man's Story Is Ideal For The Modern Era The Running Man takes place in an alternate, dystopian 2019 and examines the harsh realities of a corrupt system that perpetuates its own existence. While such a game didn't exist in the 2019 of the modern day, there's still a point to be made about a society that glorifies violence and suffering to the extent that the public would tune in to watch humans participate in something that causes harm to others in an effort to win.
