THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA AND CURIOUS FACTS COLLECTION

CREATED BY TRIVIA HUB

Blade Runner is a 1982 science fiction film directed by Ridley Scott, adapted from Philip K. Dick's novel. Set in a dystopian 2019 Los Angeles, it follows Rick Deckard, a "blade runner," who hunts bio-engineered replicants. The film, starring Harrison Ford and Rutger Hauer, explores themes of humanity and technology. Initially polarizing, Blade Runner became a cult classic, influencing cyberpunk and neo-noir genres. Its visual design, inspired by Métal Hurlant and Edward Hopper, and Vangelis's score, are notable. Several versions exist, with Scott's Final Cut being the definitive one. The film's impact continues to be seen in subsequent science fiction works.

CURIOUS FACT SAMPLES:

Blade Runner is based on the 1968 novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? by Philip K. Dick. The film is set in a dystopian Los Angeles in 2019, where bioengineered humans called replicants are hunted by "blade runners".

The movie's director, Ridley Scott, initially declined the project but joined after leaving the production of Dune, seeking a faster-paced project after his brother’s death. Scott’s vision was also influenced by the landscape of Hong Kong and the industrial areas of northeast England.

Harrison Ford, who played Rick Deckard, did not enjoy making Blade Runner and had friction with director Ridley Scott. Ford also disliked the voice-over narration that was added to the film.
