After winning us over with Prisoners, Sicario, and Arrival, director Denis Villeneuve is all set to bring us his most ambitious cinematic adventure yet: Blade Runner 2049.
The film, which is a sequel to the 1982 sci-fi classic, will see the return of Academy Award-nominee Harrison Ford (Star Wars: The Force Awakens) as Rick Deckard and thrust him into an all-new adventure alongside Officer K, played by 2x Academy Award-nominee Ryan Gosling (First Man). The duo will be joined by Ana de Armas (War Dogs), Jared Leto (Suicide Squad), Robin Wright (Wonder Woman), Dave Bautista ( Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 2), Mackenzie Davis (The Martian), and Edward James Olmos (The Predator), amongst others.
Warner Bros. has released over forty stunning hi-res photos from the film, check them out below:
Thirty years after the events of the first film, a new blade runner, LAPD Officer K (Ryan Gosling), unearths a long-buried secret that has the potential to plunge what’s left of society into chaos. K’s discovery leads him on a quest to find Rick Deckard (Harrison Ford), a former LAPD blade runner who has been missing for 30 years.
