Ryan Gosling suggests that Harrison Ford may not have a large role in Blade Runner 2049

December 11, 2016 by Gary Collinson

Having starred as Han Solo in last December’s Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Harrison Ford is set to reprise another of his former roles in 2017, returning as Rick Deckard in Blade Runner 2049, director Denis Villeneuve’s follow-up to Ridley Scott’s 1982 sci-fi masterpiece Blade Runner.

However, judging by the latest comments from his co-star Ryan Gosling, it seems we shouldn’t expect Ford to have the same kind of screen time as he enjoyed in The Force Awakens:

“I can say that we shot for many months before Harrison [Ford] arrived, and obviously there was a lot of anticipation as to when he would show up and how that would be, and it was just a relief,” said Gosling in an interview with Fandango. “The second he got to set, he just rolled up his sleeves and we all just got to work. It was a real great pleasure to get to work with him.”

It’s difficult to speculate on what kind of role Rick Deckard will play in the film, seeing as we know very little about the plot, save for the fact that it takes place decades after the original.

Blade Runner 2049 stars Harrison Ford, Ryan Gosling, Robin Wright, Jared Leto, Mackenzie Davis, Ana de Armas, Dave Bautista, Sylvia Hoeks, Carla Juri, David Dastmalchian, Hiam Abbass, Lennie James, and Barkhad Abdi. It is set for release on October 6th, 2017.
