Behind the Screen

Inside Runner

Go behind the scenes of the upcoming Queensland-shot action thriller Runner as we bring together key creatives and cast from the film for an engaging conversation about the making of the film. The discussion will cover everything from shaping its relentless pace to transforming real locations into the backdrop for a race against time. 


Join producer Deborah Glover, editor Matt Villa, locations manager Nick Smith, and Queensland-born actor Peta Sargeant as they share stories from set and insights into the filmmaking process. Inside Runner is a must for action fans, film lovers, and anyone curious about how big-screen stories are made, before audiences see it in cinemas.
