Biography Flash: Stephen King's The Running Man Trailer Drops as Welcome to Derry Teases Pennywise Return
Stephen King Biography Flash a weekly Biography.
Stephen King has been in the spotlight yet again this week, with several major news stories and releases that promise to shape the next chapter of his legendary career. Today, King’s official website announced the highly anticipated debut trailer for The Running Man, the newest film adaptation of his 1982 novel. The movie, which releases November 14, 2025 and is directed by Edgar Wright, stars Glen Powell as Ben Richards and promises a wild departure from the 1987 version. Powell leads an incredible ensemble cast, including Michael Cera, Josh Brolin, and Colman Domingo. The film’s new trailer has certainly set social and entertainment media abuzz, fueling speculation that this may become one of the highest-profile King adaptations in years, especially considering Wright’s reputation for genre-bending style.
On the television front, King continues to dominate the pop culture conversation with the ongoing HBO prequel series It: Welcome to Derry. According to a recent New York Post interview, King has teased Pennywise’s much-anticipated appearance; as the series has already aired its first two episodes, fans on social media are closely analyzing every scene, debating when and how the infamous clown will emerge. The show drops new episodes every Sunday night and is already earning critical notice for its chilling atmosphere and new leads.
In the publishing world, King remains tireless. The official King website just confirmed three major releases on the horizon. First, his picture book reinterpretation of Hansel and Gretel, created with the Maurice Sendak Foundation, launches September 2, 2025, promising a haunting twist on the classic tale. Second, The Institute is set for its MGM series premiere on July 13, 2025, bringing one of his recent novels to life for a new audience. And last but certainly not least, The Long Walk gets the big screen treatment with a September 12, 2025 release, helmed by director Francis Lawrence. Each project is generating significant online chatter and pre-sales, signaling King’s continued grip on readers and viewers.
King’s public appearances are also making headlines. Although he’s not currently touring, reports from first-time fan event “KingCon” in Las Vegas describe a festival-like atmosphere celebrating his vast contributions to horror and popular culture, with Mick Garris and Paul Tremblay among notable guests. Meanwhile, the Book to Film Series hosted by St. Simons Island Public Library marks today, November 4, 2025, as “Stephen King Day,” featuring screenings and book talks that further cement his enduring legacy in both literature and film.
Social channels remain ablaze with discussions about King’s influence and his candid media interviews. Fans are dissecting every new adaptation teaser and eagerly speculating on the future of Welcome to Derry and The Running Man. It’s safe to say the King brand is as vital and omnipresent as ever.
