Glen Powell Says 'Running Man' Flopped Due to Paramount Marketing Layoffs

Original: Glen Powell Is Staying Quiet on Politics Because ‘I Do Not Like the Discourse,’ Says ‘Running Man’ Flopped After Paramount Laid Off ‘Entire Marketing Department’

Actor Glen Powell says he avoids discussing politics because he dislikes the polarized discourse. In the same interview, he attributed the box office failure of 'The Running Man' to Paramount's decision to lay off its entire marketing department, arguing the film never got the promotional push it needed. His remarks are drawing attention for both his political silence and the blunt criticism of the studio.

Why now: A major star publicly blaming a studio's layoffs for his film's flop is a striking and unusual claim.
