Glen Powell’s “fantastic” new thriller inspired by British crime classic gets exciting update

by

I’m really excited about the new Glen Powell and Margaret Qualley thriller! It used to be called How to Make a Killing, but it has a new title now and finally has a release date. I heard it’s based on a classic British movie, and honestly, I have a feeling it’s going to be a big talking point next year.

The new movie, formerly known as Huntingdon, takes inspiration from the classic 1949 crime comedy Kind Hearts and Coronets, produced by Ealing Studios.

In the newest version of the story, Powell plays Becket Redfellow, a man cut off from his very rich family. Driven by this rejection, he’s willing to do anything to claim his share of the family fortune.

The film boasts a strong cast featuring Naomi Powell, Margaret Qualley, Jessica Henwick, Zach Woods, Topher Grace, Bill Camp, and Ed Harris. John Patton Ford wrote and directed the project.

Glen Powell, known for his roles in Top Gun: Maverick and Twisters, had already announced the new movie would have a different title, and he’s enthusiastic about it.

He announced they’ll likely be revealing a new movie title within the next few weeks (according to The Hollywood Reporter). He also praised the film, calling it fantastic and highlighting the talent of director John Patton Ford, expressing excitement for audiences to experience it.

Although we’ll have to wait a few months for the movie How to Make a Killing, you can currently see Colin Powell in The Running Man, an action-packed thriller set in a futuristic, oppressive society. It’s based on the 1982 Stephen King novel of the same name.

Edgar Wright’s movie is the second film based on Stephen King’s book. A previous adaptation starring Arnold Schwarzenegger was made in 1987. This new version features a cast including Josh Brolin, Lee Pace, Michael Cera, William H. Macy, and Colman Domingo.
