Watch: The stars of Blade Runner 2049 take us into their dystopian future

Denis Villeneuve’s Blade Runner 2049 is blasting into theaters on Friday with its dystopian story of futuristic replicants and a shocking societal secret that could tear the fabric of humankind out from under itself.

Set thirty years after the events of Ridley Scott’s original Blade Runner, this ambitious sequel is hoping to bring back some of the old neon-drenched magic and transport audiences into a dark, but exhilarating vision of the troubled world of tomorrow.

SYFY WIRE recently talked with stars Harrison Ford (Rick Deckard), Ryan Gosling (Officer K), David Bautista (Sapper Morton), Mackenzie Davis (Mariette), Sylvia Hoeks (Luv), and Ana De Armas (Joi) about their dispostions toward character empathy, the search for identity, and the survival instincts they brought to this stirring sci-fi saga.

Watch below, and tell us if you’re all in for Blade Runner 2049 when it drops into our orbit Oct. 6.
