Blade Runner 2099 Confirmed for Prime Video Release on November 25, 2026
The eight-episode miniseries brings a film-scale Blade Runner story to streaming under new creative leadership.
Overview
- Prime Video has set a global launch date of November 25, 2026 and will release all eight episodes of Blade Runner 2099 at once.
- The series is set 50 years after Blade Runner 2049 in a world where replicants now hold power and it follows an aging replicant and a human posing as a replicant on a mission.
- Michelle Yeoh plays Olwen and Hunter Schafer plays Cora, Silka Luisa is the showrunner and writer, and Ridley Scott serves as an executive producer while Denis Villeneuve is not creatively involved.
- Production was delayed by the 2023 writers and actors strikes, moved a planned Belfast shoot to Prague, began in 2024 and wrapped before the October promotional rollout that included a trailer and a new poster.
- The release continues the decades-long Blade Runner franchise from Ridley Scott’s 1982 original through the 2017 2049 sequel and signals how major film properties are expanding into streaming series.
