Ready or not, there's more Blade Runner in the works. Alcon Entertainment - the producers of Blind Side - have picked up rights to Blade Runner with an eye to turning the Ridley Scott into a franchise. Plans evidently include both prequels and sequels and may very well cross various mediums. Some reports also say Warner Brothers will be involved.
Blade Runner is set in an expansive enough world that I can see potential for a whole range of stories here - it could make an excellent miniseries - and I'd have no problems at all with a prequel story telling how the Replicants rebelled and came back to Earth in the first place. That said, I categorically do NOT want any more Dekard, particularly not anything in the timeline following the Ridley Scott film. Part of its perfection is that it is open ended and subject to interpretation and that should not be touched. Period.
