Blade Runner is easily one of the most iconic science fiction films of the Eighties, if not ever. Fans were enthralled with its 2017 sequel…. And now fans of the franchise can return to that world once again. At Comic-Con International (SDDC 2026), Prime Video gave us the first teaser for the highly-anticipate sequel series Blade Runner: 2099. You can check out the trailer below:
Showrunner Silka Luisa and executive producers Andrew Kosove and Broderick Johnson gave us our first glimpse into the eight-episode series set to premiere later this year. Joining them were the show’s stars, Michelle Yeoh (Everything Everywhere All at Once) and Hunter Schafer (Euphoria). Once more Bladerunner: 2099 will take us to the dark and gritty streets of future Los Angeles:
“Fifty years after the events of Blade Runner 2049, Los Angeles has been reborn, just not by humanity. Cora, a fugitive in a final bid to stop running, takes on one last identity: a Blade Runner. Forced to partner with Olwen, a Replicant days from dying, she hunts down a runaway hiding a truth that could collapse their fragile city.”
Blade Runner: 2099 showcases an even gritter future
Based on the trailer, the series will feel very familiar, reminding us of the dystopian future world built through the first two films. It will do so with a phenomenal cast of characters, as well.
Dimitri Abold (The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes) and Lewis Gribben (Somewhere Boy) join Michelle Yeoh and Schafer as series regulars. The show will also feature a slew of recurring guest stars, including Katelyn Rose Downey (The Nun II), Daniel Rigby (Renegade Nell), Johnny Harris (“A Gentleman in Moscow”), Amy Lennox (Only Child), Sheila Atim (The Woman King), Matthew Needham (House of the Dragon), Tom Burke (Furiosa) and Maurizio Lombardi (Ripley).
Blade Runner: 2099 will premiere on November 25, 2026 exclusively on Prime Video.
