Blade Runner 2: Harrison Ford’s reaction, possibly Blade Runner 3
He’s 34, but he looks 27 when he’s doing his push-ups.
“Of course he’s a bloody Replicant!” he said of Ford’s character.
Alien: Paradise Lost starts shooting in February 2016 ahead of a May 2017 release date, with Blade Runner 2 eyeballing a summer 2016 production start. The fact that Ford would reprise his role in the upcoming movie sparks curiosity, because the lifetime of a replicant is usually not more than four years. “He’s going to have to admit it”, he revealed.
When asked whether he would expand the Blade Runner series into multiple films, as he is planning to do with the Prometheus films, to which he said: “Listen: Everyone else is, so why not?”
There has been a lot of talk for many years now, about a possible sequel to the hit 1982 movie Blade Runner and it now looks like the movie is finally getting made. Which is very spooky, because it continues after the last one, where Elizabeth Shaw [Noomi Rapace] says, ‘I wanna go where they came from.’ And you’ve got Michael Fassbender in two parts, so she’ll slowly put him back together. “So maybe 2050.” Scott also revealed that it was the script which brought Ford back to the franchise, so while he’s not at the helm, he’s obviously confident it will be good! The film depicts a dystopian version of Los Angeles in year 2019 where genetically engineered androids called Replicants are manufactured by powerful mega-corporations for risky work on off-world colonies. Tell us, which one of Ridley Scott’s next ventures are you most excited to see return to the big screen?
Oh, yeah. I mean, I always have final cut on everything, really. Partly because I’m very user-friendly.
“I’m not going to tell you”. Scott did not comment on that but said that everything will make sense once the film comes out. If I was just a financier so you did which typically on my own, I’d take out your fantastic ankles. Just taking that off his recent string of work. If it doesn’t turn out well, I’m not sure what Scott’s contingency plans are for future Blade Runner films.
On the significance of the title: “Have you ever read Paradise Lost, by Milton?” They will find out who would design such an bad bio-mechanoid creature, like a massive piece of bacteria.
