Bosco685 Posted December 4, 2014 Author Share Posted December 4, 2014 Ridley Scott Now Says He Might Direct BLADE RUNNER 2 ----------------------- "I don’t know about [not directing ‘Blade Runner 2’] yet," Ridley Scott told Yahoo. He says he has a personal connection to it and would find it difficult to let someone else direct it. "The -script is very, very good. Very good. I wouldn’t know [what sort of director we’d want]. It’s a hard one to track because it’s a very personal piece of my work," Scott said. ”[‘Blade Runner’] may be one of the most personal pieces I did. I got so beaten up for it, I said I’d never try that again. But here we are. It’s sitting there ready to be made.” ----------------------- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This should've been done (much like the Star Wars prequels) 20 years ago. I consider Blade Runner a much more cerebral experience, coupled with a gritty reality that I think was very much not of the day and age in which it was created.

Ultra Ambient Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 It's hard to see why Harrison Ford would sign up for the sequel when he hated working with Ridley Scott so much during the first one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bosco685 Posted January 10, 2015 Author Share Posted January 10, 2015 Blade Runner 2 Release Date ------------------- He mentioned that the production will begin sometime this year. Moreover, the movie -script is already finished by writer Hampton Fancher and Green Lantern's screen writer Michael Green. 'We talked at length about what it could be, and came up with a pretty strong three-act storyline, and it all makes sense in terms of how it relates to the first on. Harrison (Ford) is very much part of this one, but really it's about finding him, he comes in the third act,' Scott said. Blade Runner 2 release date is yet to be announced while Prometheus 2 release date is slated to hit the theatres on March 4, 2016. ------------------- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bosco685 Posted September 12, 2015 Author Share Posted September 12, 2015 ‘Blade Runner 2’: Denis Villeneuve Talks “Autonomous” Follow-Up, Harrison Ford, and More So when Steve sat down with Villeneuve recently at the Toronto International Film Festival to talk about Sicario, he also took the time to ask the filmmaker about Blade Runner 2. Villeneuve reiterated that Harrison Ford is starring in the project, and revealed that Ford was set before Villeneuve became involved: “It’s more than nervous, it’s a deep fear. I mean when I heard that Ridley Scott wanted to do another movie in the Blade Runner universe, at first my reaction was that it’s a fantastic idea, but it may be a very bad idea. I’m among the hardcore fans of Blade Runner. Blade Runner is one of my favorite movies of all time. It’s a movie that is linked with my love and passion for cinema. I’m coming from a small town in Quebec where, at that time, there was no internet and the way to be in contact with movies were those American fan magazines like Fantastic Films and Starlog and I still remember the shock, the impact of seeing the first frames, the first pictures coming out of Blade Runner. Me and my friends were in awe, so excited and the movie was such a strong cinematic experience. A new way of seeing sci-fi. For me it’s like a monument. So when I realized one day that they put in front of me the Blade Runner project screen play, for me I was very moved to have this honor to read the screenplay, but I accepted to do it because I felt that Hampton Fancher, Ridely Scott and Michael Green did a fantastic job on the screenplay. It’s a very powerful screenplay. And I felt that it made sense to me and I had the Ridley Scott blessing. But you ask if I hesitated. I hesitated massively. It took me a lot of time to say yes. Not because I didn’t believe in it, because I was like ‘Who am I to dare to touch that?’ And at the same there’s a part of me that said, ‘I’m a hardcore fan, I don’t want to that up.’” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
