The Running Man (film)/Trivia

The film:

 * Hey Its That Guy: Frances' butler, Grossberger, and Jim Brown all play Stalkers.
 * Mister Big plays Laughlin.
 * Plus Mick Fleetwood as rebel leader Mic, and Dweezil Zappa as that one rebel guy.
 * Let's not forget that the game show itself is hosted by Newkirk.
 * What Could Have Been: Dolph Lundgren and Christopher Reeve were both considered for the role of Ben Richards. Can you imagine Ivan Drago or Clark Kent taking a chainsaw to a guy's genitals?
 * Andrew Davis was originally going to direct the film (after three previous directors pulled out) but was fired a week into production due to going overbudget and being four days behind schedule. Paul Michael Glaser (Starsky from Starsky and Hutch) finished the film.
