Hello Ladies & Gentlemen, Welcome to the Undisputed Wrestling Podcast.  Welcome to our podcast series called "Wrestling With Film" where every month we'll be reviewing a movie that has featured professional wrestlers. "The Undisputed Rev" James Woolford is joined by "John Cena's Biggest Fan" Callum Hogan to review the 1987 film The Running Man that features WWE Hall of Famers Arnold Schwarzenegger & Jesse Ventura. The Running Man is a 1987 American dystopian action film directed by Paul Michael Glaser and starring Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jesse Ventura. It is very loosely based on the 1982 novel of the same title written by Stephen King. The film's story, set in a dystopian United States between 2017 and 2019, is about a television show called The Running Man, where convicted criminal "runners" must escape death at the hands of professional killers. The Running Man was a moderate box office success in the United States, grossing $38 million on its $27 million budget, but opened to mixed reviews from critics.] Follow us on Twitter @TheUWPodcast and on Facebook @UWPodcast.
