The brutal R-Rated action thriller Run & Gun from Eloise and Witches in the Woods director Christopher Borrelli landed on digital this week. Following a lead character named Ray, who is forced to turn his back on his reformed life and return to his violent past, the film serves as a non-stop action ride for fans of flicks such as John Wick and Nobody.
Ben Milliken (Mighty Oak, Lake Alice) leads a cast that also includes Brad William Henke (Orange Is the New Black), Janel Parrish (Pretty Little Liars), Mark Dacascos (John Wick, Iron Chef, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.), and Richard Kind (The Goldbergs, Inside Out).
During the press circuit for Run & Gun, we had the opportunity to speak with multiple members of the cast. During our chat with Ben, he discusses his chemistry with all of his co-stars and why he feels so much nostalgia for the film, while also touching on the potential future of the franchise in prequel or sequel form.
Before checking out the interview with Milliken, be sure to look at the incredible art the poster for Run & Gun boasts above the film's synopsis.
After leaving a life of crime and violence, Ray is a reformed good guy, enjoying a quiet family life in the 'burbs. But when his past is discovered, Ray is blackmailed into one last job to collect a mysterious package. After a deadly double-cross, he finds himself wounded and on the run from ruthless assassins who will stop at nothing to get what he has. Now, with the lives of his loved ones hanging in the balance and danger at every turn, Ray's only hope is to draw upon his violent past to survive.
