Ahead of their SDCC panel, Prime Video released the first trailer for their upcoming Blade Runner series, Blade Runner 2099 this week. It’s been a long time coming, with several delays along the way, but along with the trailer, Amazon revealed at the panel that the series will be released before the end of the year.

From Amazon MGM Studios –

“Fifty years after the events of Blade Runner 2049, Los Angeles has been reborn, just not by humanity. Cora, a fugitive in a final bid to stop running, takes on one last identity: a Blade Runner. Forced to partner with Olwen, a Replicant days from dying, she hunts down a runaway hiding a truth that could collapse their fragile city”

The new series will be set, you guessed it, in 2099, 50 years on from the events of Blade Runner 2049. In Los Angeles 2099, there has been a Replicant uprising, turning the tables on humans and leaving them as the subjugated class. Hunter Schafer stars as Cora, and Michelle Yeoh as Olwen.

The show was created and showrun by Silka Luisa (Shining Girls). Original Blade Runner director Ridley Scott lends credibility by serving as an executive producer, and Jonathan van Tulleken directed the first two episodes. Blade Runner 2099 premieres on Amazon Prime Video on November 25, 2026, and will drop all 8 episodes in one go. The trailer looks promising, with a similar look to the original movie, and you can watch it here –
