Summary
November 25 is the premiere date for Blade Runner 2099, with Amazon releasing all eight episodes at once on Prime Video.
The first trailer leans on franchise hallmarks—bleak future Los Angeles, noir-style narration and replicant intrigue—as the story unfolds 50 years after Blade Runner 2049.
Michelle Yeoh and Hunter Schafer lead the series, which follows fugitive Cora and dying replicant Olwen hunting a runaway whose secret could destabilize the city.
Silka Luisa serves as showrunner and original Blade Runner director Ridley Scott is an executive producer on the project Amazon first announced in 2022.
The launch gives Amazon a long-awaited entry in prestige cyberpunk TV as Apple also develops a Neuromancer adaptation.
