Ridley Scott has taken a page out of George Lucas? book by expanding the Alien franchise beyond the original films, and it looks like he?s interested in potentially doing the same with the Blade Runner series.
With the release of the long-incubating sequel, Blade Runner 2049, set for October, Scott spoke with IGN about the future of the Blade Runner and Alien franchises.
Scott said, " George Lucas. You know, and the way he?s handled Star Wars has been spectacular. It?s what I?ve been trying to do to really evolve Alien, because in those days I wasn?t into making sequels, but now suddenly you realize, ?Well, that?s stupid.? You?d better get into sequels, duh. So, that?s in a way what I?ve been doing.?
