As he continues to grow a different sci-fi universe, Denis Villeneuve is looking back on his experience making Blade Runner 2049. The 2017 movie served as a legacy sequel to Ridley Scott’s 1982 classic adaptation of Phillip K. Dick’s Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?, chronicling the journey of modern replicant K as he untangles a deep conspiracy surrounding Harrison Ford’s Rick Deckard. Also led by Ryan Gosling, Ana de Armas and Sylvia Hoeks, the movie garnered widespread acclaim on release, but was a box office disappointment, only grossing $267.5 million against its reported $185 million production budget.
