20 Essential Movie Performances That Will Define 2017
1. Harrison Ford - Rick Deckard (Blade Runner 2049)
The Role: Legendary former blade runner Rick Deckard, who disappeared thirty years prior and is hunted down by LAPD Officer K (Ryan Gosling), who discovers a dark, humanity-threatening secret that he needs Deckard's help to solve.
Why It'll Define 2017: Harrison Ford seems to be giving a number of his most iconic roles a victory lap at the moment, and fans have been waiting far, far too long to see him return to the world of Blade Runner.
Though details about the film are still largely under wraps, it'll be nothing short of fascinating to see Ford back as Deckard three decades later, especially with so many fans eager to find out whether or not the movie will address the original movie's nagging cliffhanger regarding Deckard's identity.
Plus, a Ford-Gosling pairing has the potential to be terrific if the material is right. With the brilliant Denis Villeneuve (Sicario, Arrival) directing, there are so many reasons to be optimistic that Ford's going to give his first truly great performance in years.
