BRUCE KIRKLAND \/ Toronto Sun<\/em><\/p>\n

Do not expect Denis Villeneuve\u2019s forthcoming Blade Runner sequel to look anything like his science fiction drama Arrival, which opens wide on Friday.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey are two different movies,\u201d Villeneuve tells the Toronto Sun in a telephone interview, while taking a break from shooting his Blade Runner in Budapest. \u201cThey are very different!\u201d<\/p>\n

Arrival, which stars Amy Adams as an American linguist trying to communicate with aliens in space ships hovering just above the ground in locations around the world, is remarkably realistic. Villeneuve\u2019s team utilized an absolute minimum of special effects except when the aliens are depicted. Little flashy technology is shown.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat was one of the main objectives,\u201d Villeneuve says. \u201cThe idea was really to see what would happen if it was happening next Tuesday\u2014 on a rainy Tuesday morning in North America.\u201d Arrival was shot on location in Villeneuve home province of Quebec, with most of the action set in the United States.<\/p>\n

In contrast, Blade Runner 2049 is a long-awaited sequel to Ridley Scott\u2019s controversial classic from 1982. It starred Harrison Ford as a burned-out replicant hunter in a bleak, futuristic Los Angeles. Ford will make a cameo appearance in the sequel with Ryan Gosling headlining Villeneuve\u2019s strong cast.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe project that I am working on now has its own personality,\u201d Villeneuve says warily, referring to how he has learned to adapt to the dystopian vision offered in the original Blade Runner.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is the first time that I am making a movie in someone else\u2019s universe while trying to make something mine. It\u2019s a strange transformation. So that\u2019s where we are right now. It has its own personality because it was inspired by and is linked to the first movie, but it has its own aesthetic.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor obvious reasons, I am not allowed to discuss it. But it is like a different world. That is all I can say!\u201d<\/p>\n

Warner Bros. is keeping a tight lid on Blade Runner 2049, except to give it an official title while confirming its release date on Oct. 6, 2017.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
