Check out the first trailer for 'Blade Runner 2049'

[Shawn Knight]

Cult classic Blade Runner is finally getting the sequel it deserves. Warner Bros. Pictures on Monday published the inaugural teaser trailer for Blade Runner 2049, offering fans of the American neo-noir science fiction film their first look at Harrison Ford and Ryan Gosling in action.

On second thought, maybe “action” is the wrong word considering there isn’t much of it in the clip although fortunately, that’s not a requirement. Instead, the teaser does a good job of setting the film’s tone.

According to the description, the sequel takes place 30 years after the events of the first film. It follows a new blade runner, LAPD Officer K (Gosling), who dredges up a long-buried secret that could propel what’s left of society into full-blown chaos. Officer K takes it upon himself to try and locate former LAPD blade runner Rick Deckard (Ford) who has been missing for three decades.

Blade Runner 2049 is scheduled to hit theaters on October 6, 2017.

10.6.17 might more of estimate date release. Original was best this one takes over that old one was.

Once again, Hollywood can't come up with something ORIGINAL.

Both this and Ghost in the Shell look nice. We get some amazing looking cyberpunk in both spring and summer

nobody cares about originality as long as the movie is good! you should be glad they are making a proper blade runner sequel.
let them make 1000 sequels if all of them are good.

I was pumped until I saw they cast Gosling. Between him and Han Indiana Jones Solo, there's gonna be a lot of smirking and frowning going on in this movie.

I hope this is as big an improvement over Blade Runner as Prometheus was over Alien (cough).
