It is a bad time to be a replicant, but it is a good time to be a fan of the movie Blade Runner. The Blade Runner: Black Lotus animation series just aired on Adult Swim, and it was a sequel to Dune that we received. The man who started it all is going back to Los Angeles. 2019.
We know for certain that Scott has already written the pilot for Blade Runner and the series bible. The first 10 hours of the show will be presented as a TV show. I think we can all be sure that this series will make it to TV screens, because there is likely to be a bidding war between networks and streaming services for a series with such a huge, built-in cult following.
What will the show be about? The answer would be more adventures of Rick Deckard, played by Harrison Ford, before the first movie. It could be a series of his other Blade Runner cases hunting down the Replicants, which sounds awesome. The futuristic events of the first movie take place in 2019, which could be awkward depending on how tied into the franchise's continuity Scott wants to be. It could be set in 2049, the era of the sequel, and show other cases of K, assuming Ryan Gosling would be interested in doing more. The series could take place at any point in the past, with all the new characters, or it could be an entirely new era with Deckard and K.
Scott has two of his best films, Blade Runner and Scott's other best film, Scott's other best film, Scott's other best film, Scott's other best film, Scott's other best film, Scott's other best film, Scott's other best Alien is being overseen by Fargo and Legion's Noah Hawley without the director's involvement. He is not enthusiastic about the project. You can watch Blade Runner: Black Lotus Sundays on Adult Swim if you want to see Alien.
