Amazon Studios has begun developing a live-action TV series set in the Blade Runner universe, according to reporting from entertainment industry publication Deadline.
The series will be titled Blade Runner 2099, and it will follow 2017’s Blade Runner 2049, which was directed by Denis Villeneuve (Arrival, Dune). The Amazon series will be executive produced by Ridley Scott, who directed the original 1982 Blade Runner film.
Deadline claims that Scott may direct at least some episodes himself once the series moves forward. Currently, 2099 is staffing up its writer’s room, so it’s not far along yet.
