Blade Runner 2049 spin-off: Rick Deckard and Agent K’s story ‘to continue’ | Films | Entertainment
The report says the series will bring back the film’s characters, Deckard (played by Ford), Agent K (Gosling) and Dr Ana Stelline (Carla Juri).
At the moment it is uncertain whether the original actors will be making a return, but their stories would certainly struggle without them.
The plot would follow Deckard, Ana and K on the run after the reveal that Ana is Rachael’s (Sean Young) daughter.

The final moments of 2049 brought Deckard face-to-face with his half-replicant daughter, Ana.
Ana had been born in secret to parents Rachael, a replicant, and Deckard, a human.
Ana’s existence proved that replicants – biologically engineered humans – could reproduce, a human trait forbidden by Earth’s laws.
The TV show would follow the trio running away from the government in the iconic Blade Runner world.
The show’s plot will follow the first female protagonist of the series, a replicant who is dealing with the aftermath of The Blackout.
The Blackout is an event which occurred in Blade Runner universe and erased all of the permanent records after Deckard escaped with Rachael in 2019.
Another prequel movie was hinted at earlier this year by Niander Wallace actor Jared Leto.
Wallace was given a deep backstory in the run-up to Blade Runner 2049, receiving two short films along the way.
On this, Leto confessed: “You know, with every character I play – I don’t know if it’s because I work so intently and I tend to dig really deep and put a lot of time and energy into it – but when I’m done playing with them, done playing the parts, I do miss them a little bit.”
Leto continued: “And you do all this work anyway, it would be kind of nice to go back and explore other [characters].
“Like Niander Wallace in Blade Runner – I would love to play that part again as a prequel or something.”
Blade Runner 2049 is available on Amazon Prime Video now.
