Blade Runner 2049. The Storyboards

Sam Hudecki

In 1982, film audiences experienced a bold new depiction of the future with the ground-breaking Blade Runner, which was fundamental in establishing the still-vibrant Cyberpunk movement. With the critically acclaimed Blade Runner 2049, director Denis Villeneuve further explored that unique «future noir» world, this time following a young blade runner whose discovery of a long-buried secret leads him to track down former blade runner Rick Deckard—the protagonist of the first film—who’s been missing for some thirty years.
