Prometheus and Blade Runner Sequels Have Been Written Says Ridley Scott
Now 76 years old, Ridley Scott is showing no signs of slowing down with Exodus: Gods and Kings set for release later this year and The Martian in the works for 2015…
But what about the sequels to Prometheus and Blade Runner, which have long been rumored? Well, their arrivals may be closer than you think. Read on!
Per Entertainment Weekly, Scott revealed that the scripts for both sequels have been written, and it’s essentially now just a matter of time before he can get around to bringing them to life.
“It’s written and it’s damn good,” Scott said of the Blade Runner sequel. “Of course it involves Harrison [Ford], who is a survivor after all these years. So yes, that will happen.”
The highly anticipated Blade Runner sequel was co-written by Scott, Hampton Fancher, and Michael Green. Ford hasn’t yet confirmed his involvement.
As far as a sequel to Prometheus is concerned, Scott didn’t comment directly on that project, though we do know that Jack Paglen was hired to write the script last year.
“I’ve got a lot of ducks in a row,” the filmmaker noted, “but they’re all written.”
