The Warner Bros.-based production company Alcon Entertainment is in final negotiations to acquire film, television, and ancillary rights to produce prequels and sequels to the iconic 1982 iconic science fiction thriller Blade Runner.
Although it will be able to produce films based on situations introduced in the original film, Alcon will not have the right to remake Bladerunner, which was based on Phillip K. Dick’s classic novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep.
Bladerunner, which was directed by Ridley Scott, was not a box office success, but the film, which has a wonderfully dense and rich mise-en-scene, has grown in stature over the years and is now an accepted science fiction classic.
