Ridley Scott will not direct 'Blade Runner' Sequel

Ridley Scott will not direct Blade Runner 2 when it begins shooting in 2015.
The director revealed the imminent start date for the long-awaited production, as well as confirming that Harrison Ford will reprise his role as Rick Deckard in the movie.

According to sources, the 76-year-old has made 12 films in the last 14 years while producing numerous film and TV projects in that time through his Scott Free production company. Presently, Scott is promoting the December 2nd release of Exodus: Gods and Kings and filming The Martian. A Prometheus sequel is also seemingly on the horizon and there is the Blade Runner sequel that Scott has previously talked up, but apparently he’ll be less involved in the latter than previously thought.
