Denis Villeneuve’s ‘Blade Runner 2’ is lookin’ sharp for July Posted: 30 Mar 2016 12:34 AM PDT "Blade Runner" Japanese Promotional Poster Filmmaker Denis Villeneuve (Sicario) will start shooting Blade Runner 2 in July, with a theatrical release date set for January 12, 2018. This sequel to the ground-breaking 1982 science fiction classic, which will take place some years after the first film concluded, has Harrison Ford returning as Rick Deckard. Ryan Gosling (Drive), Dave Bautista (Kickboxer: Vengeance) and Robin Wright (State of Grace) will co-star. Ridley Scott, director of the original, is serving as one of the film’s producers and writers. Hampton Fancher, who also worked on the original, is back on board as screenwriter. Michael Green (Green Lantern) is co-writing. According to Scott (via Variety), Ford loves the screenplay: "I sent him this (script) and he said, 'Wow, this is the best thing I've ever read,' so it's very relevant to what happened (in) the first one." Scott continued: "I'm not just doing a sequel with lots of action and see how far we can go with the special effects because you can't really. Blade Runner kind of landed on a somehow very credible future. And it's very difficult to change that because it's been so influential with everything else." We’ll keep you updated on Blade Runner 2 as we hear more. Stay tuned!
