25 years after its release, Blade Runner is now getting a sequel. The film, titled Blade Runner 2049, continues from 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.
The new trailer shows a bit more of the post-apocalyptic world and we are also introduced to more of the creepy Jared Leto who now has a name - Wallace. Dave Bautista, of whom we had a fleeting glimpse, now has more dialogues, and it is almost confirmed at this point that he is a replicant.
The movie will hit the theatres on October 6, 2017.
