Director Bong Joon-ho meets Edgar Wright, director of The Running Man.
On the 13th, the film The Running Man said Edgar Wright and Bong Joon-ho will appear together on Cine21's YouTube "Masters Talk."
The Running Man is a chase-action blockbuster that unfolds as unemployed father 'Ben Richards' (Glen Powell) takes part in a global survival program where he must survive 30 days against brutal pursuers for a large cash prize. It is drawing attention as a distinctive chase-action blockbuster featuring the hot action performance of next-generation action star Glen Powell.
Among them, a special conversation featuring the film's director Edgar Wright and Bong Joon-ho, who has established himself as a representative director of Korea with Monster, Snowpiercer, Parasite and Mickey 17, will be released. Bong Joon-ho and Edgar Wright, who said they have been in contact since the release of the film Monster, have continued regular exchanges and built a special friendship. Bong Joon-ho even took the name "Edgar" of a character appearing in the film Snowpiercer from Edgar Wright, and when Edgar Wright visited Korea for Baby Driver, he attended as a guest at a GV, forging a close connection.
In this Masters Talk, expectations are high that they will share everything from behind-the-scenes of The Running Man to creative rapport as directors and lighthearted back-and-forth banter. In particular, Bong Joon-ho's viewing impressions and interpretations will help discover unique viewing points of the film and raise prospective audiences' interest. The warm chemistry and sincere talk between Bong Joon-ho and Edgar Wright can be seen on Cine21's YouTube channel on Friday the 21st at 5 p.m.
The Running Man is scheduled to be released on Dec. 3. <
