Blade Runner 2099 was designed from the outset for viewers who have never seen either film. Showrunner Silka Luisa says the series' story is not directly connected to the events of Blade Runner 2049.
Set in Los Angeles fifty years after Blade Runner 2049, the series follows Cora, played by Hunter Schafer, as she assumes a Blade Runner's identity. She partners with Olwen, a replicant played by Michelle Yeoh who has only days left to live. All eight episodes arrive on Prime Video on November 25, 2026.
