Warner Bros. and
filmmaker Denis Villeneuve have unveiled the first of three short films that
take place in between Ridley Scott's Blade Runner and Villeneuve's upcoming
sequel Blade Runner 2049.
Titled 2036:
Nexus Dawn, the film sees Niander Wallace, played by Jared Leto, introducing his
new line of replicants to the world.
Thirty years after the events
of the first film, a new blade runner, LAPD Officer K (Ryan Gosling), unearths
a long-buried secret that has the potential to plunge what’s left of society
into chaos. K’s discovery leads him on a quest to find Rick Deckard (Harrison
Ford), a former LAPD blade runner who has been missing for 30 years.
With a script by Michael Green ("American Gods") and Hampton
Fancher ("Blade Runner"), and cinematography by Roger Deakins
("Sicario"), Blade Runner 2049 follows the initial story by
Fancher and David Peoples based on the Philip K. Dick novel Do Androids Dream
of Electric Sheep.
Opening in
theaters on October 6, the film also stars Robin Wright, Dave Bautista, Lennie
James, Jared Leto, Barkhad Abdi, Mackenzie Davis, Sylvia Hoeks, and Ana de
Armas.
