Owen Wilson Joins Alan Ritchson In “Runner”

Owen Wilson is set to star alongside “Reacher” actor Alan Ritchson in the action feature “Runner” with filming beginning next month in the Australian state of Queensland.

Tommy White and Miles Hubley penned the Black List script which sees Ritchson playing Hank Malone, a high-end courier who has three hours to transport an organ to save a seven-year-old girl in need of an immediate transplant.

The seemingly simple mission turns deadly when the leader of a notorious crime syndicate becomes determined to claim the organ. Wilson will play Ben, a courier Hank is reluctantly forced to transport and protect.

Scott Waugh (“Need for Speed,” “Expendables 4”) directs while Ritchson, Todd Garner, Dan Spilo, Mark Fasano, Jeffrey Greenstein and Deborah Glover produce.

Ritchson recently shot “War Machine” for Netflix and Adam Shankman’s holiday comedy “The Man with the Bag” alongside Arnold Schwarzenegger, has an untitled Apple TV+ series due out later this year, and is filming Jeremy Garelick’s “Live Nation” presently.

A third season of “Reacher” is due out starting later this month.
