Amazon shared a short clip from the Blade Runner 2049 show at a major New York Comic-Con. Michelle Yeoh plays a leading replicant who oversees others. Hunter Schafer takes on a key supporting role.
The show is set in the year 2099, long after the first movie’s 2019 ending. Replicants now run most daily jobs in Los Angeles. The clip hints at machines have taken more power than before. This transforms Ridley Scott’s classic cyberpunk vision into a new streaming adaptation.
