Quote The replicants are heading to the small-screen as Amazon Studios has put a live-action series set in the Blade Runner universe into development. Ridley Scott, who directed the original 1982 Blade Runner movie, is executive producing the series, Blade Runner 2099, a follow-up to the feature film sequel Blade Runner 2049, which was released in 2017 and directed by Denis Villeneuve. Silka Luisa, showrunner of Starz’s upcoming Elisabeth Moss-fronted drama series Shining Girls, is writing and exec producing Blade Runner 2099, which comes from Scott Free Productions in association with Alcon Entertainment and Amazon Studios. The project, which would mark the first Blade Runner live-action series, is in priority development at Amazon Studios, which is fast tracking scripts and eyeing potential production dates. Staffing is currently underway for writers to join a room. Scott may direct if the series moves forward, sources said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kamusha Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 Interesting investment for Amazon considering that the two Blade Runner movies were financial disappointments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bacon Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 Eh. 100% they won't make a product I enjoy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwinIon Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 I love both films, but I seriously doubt this is a good idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ort Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 There was an animated show on Adult Swim recently as well. I watched an episode and a half and lost interest. It was painfully mediocre and felt like someone went to the trope store and filled up the cart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same. 1 hour ago, ort said: There was an animated show on Adult Swim recently as well. I watched an episode and a half and lost interest.

Not sure if this will be any good, or even if it's a good idea to make, but let's see. There's a large world to explore, if anything, to sustain a TV series, in theory.

Dre801 Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 I enjoyed 2049. Just watched it for the first time about a year ago. Not sure about this though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
