Harrison Ford Up For 'Blade Runner' Follow up?

Film geek scoop during the day: Harrison Ford looks like it's at the begining of foretells come in Ridley Scott's new "Edge Runner" movie. One imagines he'd return because the legendary Ron Deckard, though, obviously, that's mere speculation at this time. A "Edge Runner" follow up reaches least 2 yrs from visiting fruition, and absolutely nothing continues to be occur stone, including Ford's possible casting. But when he's involved with Scott's new undertake the "Edge Runner" world, then there's lots of ways it might engage in. To begin with: Is Deckard a replicant, or perhaps is he not? Purveyors of 27 director's and producer's cuts will be familiar with the lengthy running discussion, sparked by Scott and Ford's "is he or is not he" switch-failing through decades of interviews, commentaries, and sly asides. If Ford turns up being an older, gray-haired Deckard, that will appear to point out no in the end, replicants can't age and also have a limited life time, as established within the original "Edge Runner." Or otherwise. Let's say replicants can age, despite earlier testimony? That will raise another batch of questions associated with "Edge Runner"'s ongoing soul-searching concerning the character of humanity. Using the next phase of humanity so refined, an amount which means that for that previous model? It can't need to get that heavy, either -- we might just be brought to a by-the-amounts conspiracy including people of Congress who turn to be replicants, or something like that. A ripoff from the Cylon plot from "Battlestar Galactica," since it labored very well before. But knowing Scott and Ford and also the "Edge Runner" pedigree, that might be unlikely. Within the other way, Deckard might just be a typically aged individual, body fat on his times of as being a detective and fighting the great combat individuals stinking robots. He'd appear to provide our new protagonist a suggestion, or simply a bad one. The Protector mentions that Ford would play a "replicant enemy," so may possibly not be all hunky dory within the Runner-verse. A villainous Deckard may be much better than no Deckard whatsoever, if Scott is set on building upon his perhaps finest film. Again, talks continue to be early and also the whole project could break apart prior to an organized 2014 release date. But let us hope not -- if early returns on "Prometheus" are indication, Scott still provides extensive gas left within the tank, and Ford is just like his director. Does "Edge Runner" still interest Harrison Ford? Inform us what you believe within the comments section as well as on Twitter!
