Now, Ridley Scott has signed on to direct and produce the next Blade Runner film. Wow. Deadline is reporting that after revisiting his Alien franchise, the director is keen to go back to again to another of his seminal science fiction projects, and has now signed a deal to direct and produce with the previously announced producers Andrew Kosove and Broderick Johnson. There is still no word on whether this movie will be a sequel or a prequel. When we interviewed Kosove and Johnson (back in March) they were open to all ideas including showing the bloody Replicant mutiny, or what happened after the Rick Deckard story". --Ahrvid -- ahrvid@xxxxxxxxxxx / Be an @SFJournalen Twitter Follower for all the latest news in short form! / Gå med i SKRIVA - för författande, sf, fantasy, kultur (skriva-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx, subj: subscribe) / Om Ahrvids novellsamling Mord på månen: http://www.zenzat.se/zzfaktasi.html C Fuglesang: "stor förnöjelse...jättebra historier i mycket sannolik framtidsmiljö"! / YXSKAFTBUD, GE VÅR WCZONMÖ IQ-HJÄLP!
