Blade Runner Final Cut returns to cinemas with live Vangelis soundtrack

The Ridley Scott science fiction masterpiece, Blade Runner, is returning to the big screen in its 2007 Final Cut version. This special cinematic experience features the iconic electronic score by Vangelis performed live in perfect synchronization with the film by The Avex Ensemble.

As part of the Romaeuropa Festival 2026, a cine-concert event is scheduled for November 8 at the Auditorium Parco della Musica Ennio Morricone in Rome. The screenings, held in collaboration with the Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia, will take place in the Sala Santa Cecilia. The film will be presented in its original English language with Italian subtitles.

The Final Cut version is noted for being the only edition where Ridley Scott maintained complete creative control, allowing for a remastered presentation that restores the visual density of the original vision. The tour has included various international locations in 2026, including Mesa, Arizona, Brooklyn, and Lugano.
