Dune director Denis Villeneuve’s Blade Runner 2049 featured Jared Leto as Niander Wallace. And today, Leto confirms he’s up for more movies set in the universe.
Leto tells Jake’s Takes: “You know, with every character I play, I don’t know if it’s because I work so intently and I tend to dig really deep and put a lot of time and energy into it, but when I’m done playing with them, done playing the parts, I do miss them a little bit. And you do all this work anyway, it would be kind of nice to go back and explore other [characters]. Like Niander Wallace in Blade Runner, I would love to play that part again as a prequel or something.”
The flick centered on a new blade runner who unearths a secret that has the potential to plunge what’s left of society into chaos. His discovery leads him on a quest to find Rick Deckard, a former blade runner who’s been missing for 30 years.
