Amazon released a short clip from the Blade Runner 2049 show at the yearly New York Comic-Con. Michelle Yeoh plays a leading replicant who manages others. Hunter Schafer has a key supporting role.
The show is set in future 2099, long after the first movie’s 2019 ending. Replicants now run most everyday jobs in Los Angeles. The clip suggests machines have gained more power than before. This transforms Ridley Scott’s classic cyberpunk style into a fresh streaming adaptation.
