Blade Runner 2099 will feel more like the original than Denis Villeneuve's version, says star

Blade Runner.

Amazon Prime Video's upcoming Blade Runner series will apparently feel aesthetically closer to the original movie. The franchise began in 1982 with Ridley Scott's original sci-fi vision before returning in 2017 with Denis Villeneuve's neo-noir take on the film.

Speaking to Variety, Furiosa star Tom Burke, who will play a key role in the new series, said: "There was a moment of just letting go… I was like, 'OK, we’re really going out there with this.'" The actor then added that the show will be "much closer to the aesthetic of the first movie than the second movie" as it contains "that somewhat kind of Baroque, eclectic mix of cultures and time periods."
