"Fall might not have technically started yet, but you can still nestle in a dark air-conditioned theater and pretend to your heart's content with this week's plethora of options. Alongside The Long Walk, there's the reunion of a decades-old fake rock band, a return of a charming singing nun/babysitter, another murder in a New York, and a chance to go back in Pixar's toy box. (A lot of returns, huh?) Plus, the Emmys!"
"The Hunger Games director is taking a break from Panem to adapt some Stephen King. In The Long Walk, young men sign up for a walking contest where they must keep a pace of three miles per hour or be killed on the spot, and the contest only ends when there's one person left. Cooper Hoffman, David Jonsson, and Charlie Plummer star as some of the young boys in this gnarly competition while Mark Hamill is the Major, the menacing officer supervising the walk."
A new Stephen King adaptation, The Long Walk, centers on young men forced into a lethal walking contest that ends only when one remains; participants must maintain three miles per hour or face execution. Francis Lawrence directs, with Cooper Hoffman, David Jonsson, and Charlie Plummer among the competitors and Mark Hamill as the menacing Major. Other notable returns include a reunion concert from the fictional band This Is Spinal Tap and a variety of nostalgic releases spanning a singing nun/babysitter, another New York murder story, Pixar-related offerings, and the Emmys.
