With all the hot buzz about Prometheus
HTML http://pennycan.createaforum.com/movies/prometheus-(alien-prequel)/msg624/#msg624,<br
/>we gotta get the Blade Runner 2 thread up and running to track
its progress. I for one hope this gets made as I am a fan of the
original Blade Runner
HTML http://pennycan.createaforum.com/dvd's-blu-rays/blade-runner-(1982)/msg5203/#msg5203.<br
/>Yo Mac, time for you to right a wrong and finish watching the
first film in preparation for this one!!
Although I'm definitely interested in the prequel, which is what
the rumors are saying it is, I have to wonder about the comment
that Ridley Scott made in this weeks issue of Entertainment
Weekly where he would welcome Harrison Ford to reprise his role.
Um...how? Are Replicants special because they have a microship
that gives them Benjamin Button's powers of aging backwards?

Ridley Scott’s New Blade Runner Film Will Be Sequel
A month shy of Blade Runner’s 30th anniversary, word has come
down that Ridley Scott will direct a sequel to the
groundbreaking sci-fi film, with original screenwriter Hampton
Fancher in talks to develop the screenplay.
News that Scott would helm a new Blade Runner movie came out a
while back, but up until now it was unclear if the film would be
a prequel, sequel or something else entirely. Beyond the clarity
that the movie will indeed be a sequel, few details about its
actual premise have been released.
“The filmmakers would reveal only that the new story will take
place some years after the first film concluded,” production
company Alcon Entertainment said in a statement announcing the
sequel to the 1982 adaptation of Philip K. Dick’s novel Do
Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?.
However, as The Mary Sue points out, Scott noted recently that
he’s looking to have a female lead in the film. Since Scott has
already said Harrison Ford likely won’t be returning to reprise
his role as “blade runner” Rick Deckard, having an amazing
female lead holds the potential for true awesomeness.
“I started my first meetings on the Blade Runner sequel last
week,” Scott told the Daily Beast in an interview posted
Thursday. “We have a very good take on it. And we’ll definitely
be featuring a female protagonist.”
The legendary director, whose highly anticipated Alien spinoff
Prometheus opens next month, doesn’t elaborate on what kind of
female protagonist his new Blade Runner film will feature — or
whether she’ll be a replicant. But from Thelma & Louise to G.I.
Jane, the director has earned a reputation for employing
kick-ass female leads.
Sigourney Weaver’s Lt. Ripley from Alien is generally considered
the action heroine by which all others are measured, and
Prometheus boasts two female leads: Charlize Theron (who won an
Oscar for Monster) and Noomi Rapace (the original Girl With the
Dragon Tattoo).
“[I] was pretty taken with this little punk in the lead who
seemed to own the street,” Scott told the Daily Beast of
Rapace’s performance in the Girl With the Dragon Tattoo. “As a
protagonist, she’s a very physical woman who’s almost as agile
as an acrobat and keeps herself enormously fit. She’s also got a
real brain in her head. No one’s going to be disappointed [by
her performance in Prometheus]…. She sure does kick some ass in
this movie — again and again.”
It’ll be a while before the new Blade Runner movie gets under
way (Scott is currently in preproduction for his next film, The
Counselor). But in the meantime, Rooney Mara — call your agent.

I like the idea of a Female lead, but on a personal level, I
want to see Harrison Ford come back. If not as a major
character, a smaller role would be nice.

So, I take it that the news from a few months ago wasn't really
legit regarding Ford being asked to come back to his iconic
role. I guess it is now.

We cant have a female Blade Runner? Maybe Natalie Portman in
the Deckard role, Natalie Morales in the Edward James Olmos
role, Kelly Hu does the eyes...
