In a recent interview (via Film Music Reporter) with the Icelandic radio station RUV, composer Jóhann Jóhannsson revealed to them that he will indeed be reuniting with director Denis Villeneuve to score his upcoming Blade Runner sequel, which stars Harrison Ford & Ryan Gosling in the lead roles.

Plot details for the yet-to-be titled Warner Bros. film are pretty much nonexistent at this point, but the film is due out in theaters October 2017, so we should be learning more relatively soon. In addition to Ford & Gosling, it will feature an all-star cast consisting of Robin Wright (Wonder Woman), Dave Bautista (Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2), Ana de Armas (Knock Knock), Sylvia Hoeks (The Lake), Carla Juri (Morris From America), Mackenzie Davis (The Martian), Barkhad Abdi (Captain Phillips), David Dastmalchian (Ant-Man), Hiam Abbass (Exodus: Gods and Kings), Lennie James (The Walking Dead), & Jared Leto (Suicide Squad).

The 2x Academy Award-nominated Jóhannsson is a frequent collaborator of Villeneuve's and previously teamed with him on Prisoners, Sicario, & his latest project Arrival. His other film work includes The Theory of Everything, The 11th Hour, Lovesong, and The Mercy.

They really need to nail the score of this movie. The soundtrack of the first Blade Runner is what gives the film 90% of its atmosphere. I hope they can match that feel, even if they go for a slightly different style.

I haven't seen Sicario, but it's been on my to do list ever since I found out Villeneuve would be directing. Maybe I'll check out the score on YouTube or something.

This movie is already sounding amazing.

Aw, snap. Woulda been awesome if Vangelis came back to score.
