The original Blade Runner directed by Ridley Scott is considered one of the greatest and most influential science fiction movies of all time and we are excited to introduce Blade Runner 2099 to our global Prime Video customers Vernon Sanders head of global television for Amazon said according to Variety.
We are honored to be able to present this continuation of the Blade Runner franchise and are confident that by teaming up with Ridley Alcon Entertainment Scott Free Productions and the remarkably talented Silka Luisa Blade Runner 2099 will uphold the intellect themes and spirit of its film predecessors.
So far show runner Silka Luisa is the only name attached to the project so its anyones guess at this time whether any of the former films cast which included not only Gosling but Dave Bautista Ana de Armas Jared Leto and Sylvia Hoeks getting Harrison Ford who starred in both of the previous movies seems a gain beyond the dreams of avarice so we would not speculate further here.
Scott has revealed that the series will likely consist of ten one hour long episodes. It will be one of the most expensive titles Prime Video has produced yet which may indicate that an A List star such as Gosling who still has a vibrant movie career might be a budget impossibility for the show. If he did appear in the series in any capacity beyond archive footage it would mark Goslings first TV appearance in a character role since 1999s pilot for The Unbelievables.
