    “Million hunts. One runs. Everybody watches.” That is the tagline for Edgar Wright’s tackle The Working Man, an up to date model of the 1982 Stephen King novel that stars Glen Powell taking on for Arnold Schwarzenegger, who took level within the 1987 model dropped at life by director Paul Michael Glaser. The trailer for the Paramount launch dropped right now, and to say that reactions on-line have been blended can be an understatement. Gen Z has no clue what is going on on, Millennials are up in arms, and Gen X? We simply need a devoted adaptation.

    “Is that this a Starvation Video games ripoff?” requested @TakiVan1 on X after watching The Working Man trailer (seen beneath). We’re not even certain we need to dignify that with a solution. “Starvation Video games walked so The Working Man may dash,” added @kienobifilms. You hear that? That’s the sound of our palms slapping firmly towards our faces. Disgruntled X consumer @freddienew added:

    “Except Glen Powell has gained 200 kilos, had a charisma transplant from Schwarzenegger, and goes to spend the entire movie in a skin-tight yellow jumpsuit, I actually am struggling to care.”

    Edgar Wright’s New Stephen King Adaptation Has One Key Distinction From Arnold Schwarzenegger’s 1987 Cult Traditional

    Katy M. O’Brian confirms that ‘The Working Man’ remake will keep true to the e-book.

    “Changing an iconic actor with a mediocre one is tremendous dangerous,” @Autonomous_ZZ wrote, whereas @NickJLocher suggested everybody to “go watch Arnold’s model” as a result of it is “assured to be a lot better.” Many others bemoaned the necessity for a remake, claiming that Hollywood is clearly “out of authentic concepts.” Yawn. It is the identical argument we have been listening to for years. Possibly these individuals ought to give you an authentic rebuttal.

    ‘The Working Man’ Trailer Appears Superior

    Regardless of all of the negativity from the peanut gallery, nevertheless, there are a selection of parents which can be undoubtedly hyped about The Working Man hitting theaters later this yr, and acknowledge the necessity for Wright’s model. @blewis1103 referred to as it the “trailer of the yr,” including that “The Working Man simply leapfrogged to the highest of my most anticipated listing, and I’m 99% certain that is Glen Powell’s Prime Gun.” They might have some extent there. Whereas everybody else was busy complaining about one other remake, @AutismRonin chimed in to provide a special perspective that, in some ways, is spot on:

    “I really feel like The Working Man is a uncommon case the place remaking an 80s sci-fi motion movie is smart. The unique is not precisely beloved or had a long-lasting legacy, so getting a great snappy director and a charismatic result in do a extra realized thought works higher than different makes an attempt.”

    Lastly, somebody who is not issues by way of rose-colored glasses. Sure, Schwarzenegger’s model of The Working Man is a cult-favorite, however let’s not faux that it was beloved by the lots when it was launched in 1987. It barely made again its price range, acquired blended critiques from critics, and went on to turn into a kind of movies that solely die-hard motion/Arnie followers actually care about. Heck, even right now it holds only a 67% ranking on Rotten Tomatoes from pundits, and a 61% from followers – and that is with over 50,000 verified rankings. Do not even get us began on how a lot it butchered King’s novel, both.

    The underside line is that this: the trailer seems superior, Powell’s efficiency appears top-notch, and the movie seems to be sticking fairly near the supply materials whereas on the identical time together with sufficient motion and mayhem to fulfill followers seeking an adrenaline rush from begin to end. And no, it is not The Starvation Video games. Good grief.

    Be sure you take a look at The Working Man when it hits theaters on November 7, 2025, from Paramount Photos.
