Prime Video Blade Runner 2099 series updates

Overview

Prime Video has confirmed that the eight-episode limited series ‘Blade Runner 2099’ is scheduled to premiere on November 25, 2026. Produced by Amazon MGM Studios, Alcon Television Group, and Scott Free Productions, the series marks the first television expansion of the franchise. Showrunner Silka Luisa, who serves as executive producer alongside Ridley Scott, has emphasized that the series will feature a standalone narrative. While set in the same shared universe approximately fifty years after ‘Blade Runner 2049’, the story is designed as a new entry point for viewers.

As the premiere approaches, Prime Video has released the final trailer for the series. The plot follows Olwen, a replicant Blade Runner nearing death played by Michelle Yeoh, and Cora, a human fugitive who assumes a replicant identity played by Hunter Schafer. Set in a transformed Los Angeles where replicants have risen to power, the duo must partner to hunt a runaway possessing information that could destabilize the city. Yeoh has described her character, Olwen, as a “fluid and terrifying individual” rather than a traditionally robotic figure.

Recent updates confirm that Jonathan van Tulleken will direct and executive produce the first two episodes. Production, which began in Prague in May 2024 following delays caused by the 2023 Hollywood strikes, also features actors Dimitri Abold and Lewis Gribben. The series will be available in more than 240 countries and territories.
