Summary

Step Brothers Hunger Games director Francis Lawrence asks audiences to take a Long Walk in Stephen King’s shoes for the 2025 movie adaptation of the horror writer’s 1979 dystopian novel. Why has Mark Hamill gone to the Dark Side, using brute force to make 50 teenage boys march down America’s post-apocalyptic highways until only one is left standing? And who in this fresh-faced cast, which includes the latest Karate Kid and the “Andy” from Alien Romulus? Will the son of Philip Seymour Hoffman break away from the pack and become a major film star in the future? Listen to Find Out!
