It has been nearly five years since Ridley Scott first announced his plans for a TV spinoff of his sci-fi masterpiece Blade Runner (1982) and the 2017 sequel Blade Runner 2049. It’s finally here—or almost, anyway. Prime Video debuted the first teaser for the new 10-episode series, Blade Runner 2099, at San Diego Comic-Con on Friday. We also got a teaser for the third season of Prime Video’s Rings of Power and a new trailer for HBO’s Lanterns. Co-stars Michelle Yeoh and Hunter Schafer (Euphoria) joined show runner Silka Luisa (Shining Girls) onstage for the big reveal, which also included an exclusive clip shown to the audience. Luisa told Entertainment Weekly that the series stays true to the original’s “noir principles… and there’s a mystery at the heart of the show that looks both forwards and backwards in terms of mythology.” An uprising has occurred and the humans lost, which means they are now the hunted second-class citizens. “The show is really imagining what comes after us, and what does it mean to be human in a world where humanity is no longer relevant,” said Luisa
