After the films, the Blade Runner universe expands into a TV series with Blade Runner 2099. Set fifty years after the events of Blade Runner 2049, this new installment brings together Michelle Yeoh and Hunter Schafer. It lands on Prime Video in France on November 25, 2026.
Changing the format brings a slate of new characters. Hunter Schafer portrays Cora, a fugitive who assumes the identity of a Blade Runner. Michelle Yeoh stars as Olwen, a replicant with a ticking clock. In a transformed Los Angeles, the two women must team up to track down a fugitive who holds a city-threatening secret. This duo kicks off the new storyline.
Silka Luisa, the mind behind Shining Girls, leads the series as showrunner and creative force. Ridley Scott, the director of the original Blade Runner, serves as an executive producer, joined by Blade Runner 2049 co-writer Michael Green. Jonathan van Tulleken directs the first two episodes. These ties to the films frame a tale that sits further along in the franchise’s timeline.
Prime Video has unveiled an official first teaser to unveil this new chapter:
