That was a clip from the new Daily Wire film Run Hide Fight Infidels, an action thriller starring Jonathan Majors. It's about an ISIS terror group that takes over an American college campus. It's already generated a lot of buzz for its very unflinching portrayal of radical Islam and its convergence with the radical left.

The director of the film, Kyle Rankin, joins us in studio to discuss the making of the film, its charged subject matter, and why he believes Americans are primed for films just like this. I'm Daily Wire Executive Editor John Bickley with Georgia Howe. This is a weekend edition of Ponywire. We should all be concerned by the rise in Marxist thought in our country. It attacks the very foundation on which our freedoms are built, and it's already having dangerous effects. Alliance Defending Freedom is pushing back, protecting your God-given rights in courtrooms across America. They're scoring critical wins for free speech, religious freedom, the sanctity of life, and parental rights, even at the U.S. Supreme Court.

So we have both seen uh this film. We're excited about it. Our whole staff is buzzing about this and really can't wait for the world to kind of to see it. And we wanted to ask you a bunch of questions, sort of behind the scenes and also some some stuff about thematics and even sort of fears about the movie. Yeah, please. Um first, you know, this is this is a sequel sort of to Run Hide Fight, which is one of our best performing films at Daily Wire. Yeah. Our first official film that we actually launched. Yes. Yes. And um it's kind of not a sequel.
John Bickley 4:01
It kind of is a sequel. Yeah. What drew you to this approach to following up?
Kyle Rankin 4:07
Run hide fight. Yeah, I never expected to make a sequel. Um, and it was really uh Mike Richards, I believe, the the the CEO here, um, had what I heard Mike was very smart about saying, let's do more of what's working. And the first run hide fight is working very well. And so I I got an initial call. I think I zoomed with Dallas Sonier, my great producer, and Mike, and Mike had kind of A one line idea. Like Um, which I don't wanna spoil, but it had to do with kind of this pro Palestinian protest basically being a gateway for real terrorists.
