In this episode of 'Need Some Introduction,' Victor and Darren discuss various Stephen King adaptations, focusing on the new film 'The Running Man,' directed by Edgar Wright and starring Glen Powell. They compare the new film to the original 1980s Schwarzenegger version and to Stephen King’s book. They also touch upon King’s upcoming series adaptations, including 'Dark Tower,' and provide thoughts on 'Welcome to Derry' and its connection to the 'It' universe. Additionally, they critique 'The Running Man' adaptation’s box office performance, Edgar Wright’s filmography, and preview 'Train Dreams' while contemplating revisiting HBO’s 'Watchmen' series.

The conversation wraps up with a brief discussion about the disappointing Welcome to Derry episode.
