Seven years after Denis Villeneuve’s Blade Runner 2049, Blade Runner is headed to the small screen in Amazon’s upcoming Blade Runner 2099, and Deadline reports this morning that Michelle Yeoh (Everything Everywhere All at Once) has signed on to star!

Ridley Scott (Blade Runner) is executive producing the live action television series, with Blade Runner 2099 said to be a follow-up to the events of film sequel Blade Runner 2049.

“The latest installment of the neo-noir sci-fi franchise will be set 50 years after the sequel.”

Blade Runner 2099 comes from Alcon Entertainment, Scott Free, and Amazon Studios. Silka Luisa (“Shining Girls”) is writing, showrunning and executive producing.

Jonathan van Tulleken (“Shōgun”) will direct and executive produce the first two episodes.

“The original Blade Runner, directed by Ridley Scott, is considered one of the greatest and most influential science-fiction movies of all time, and we’re excited to introduce Blade Runner 2099 to our global Prime Video customers,” Amazon Studios’ Vernon Sanders recently said.

Released in 1982, Ridley Scott’s Blade Runner was an adaptation of Philip K. Dick’s 1968 novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?. The 2017 sequel picked up the story years later.

In the original movie, “A blade runner must pursue and terminate four replicants who stole a ship in space, and have returned to Earth to find their creator.”

And in Villeneuve’s sequel, “Young Blade Runner K’s discovery of a long-buried secret leads him to track down former Blade Runner Rick Deckard, who’s been missing for thirty years.”
