Plot
Thirty years after the events of the first film, a new blade runner, the officer K from the LAPD (Ryan Gosling) discovers a dark secret that could bring the end of humanity as we know it. This discovery leads him to find the former blade runner Rick Deckard (Harrison Ford), who has been missing for thirty years. The film is directed by Denis Villeneuve ('Arrival', 'Sicario'), and the cast is completed by Ana de Armas as Joi, Jared Leto as Niander Wallace, Mackenzie David, Robin Wright, Sylvia Hoeks and Dave Bautista.
Villeneuve is set to bring to the big screen the continuation of the cult film from the eighties, 'Blade Runner' based on the novel, 'Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?' by Philip K. Dick. The script is written by Hamton Fancher and Michael Green.

Trivia
Relation between Villeneuve and Hord
Initially, Denis Villeneuve was against the concept of a sequel to 'Blade Runner' (1982), as he felt it could violate the original. But after reading the script, which he and Harrison Ford have described as "one of the best" they have ever read, he committed to the project, stating that Ford was already involved at that point: "To be very honest with you, Harrison was part of the project before I arrived. He was attached to it right from the start with Ridley [Scott]. I met him and he's honestly one of the nicest human beings I've met and is one of my favorite actors of all time, so for me it's a lot of pleasure."
Jared Leto is too fast
Jared Leto traveled to Budapest, Hungary in September 2016 to film his scenes and was wrapped in just under two weeks.
