30 Most Hotly Anticipated Movies Still To Come In 2017 - Ranked

4. Blade Runner 2049

Release Date: October 6th

Billed As:

The return of Rick Deckard, replicants and Ridley Scott's dusty dystopian future, as lensed by Denis Villeneuve.

Hype:

If you're a fan of the original, you're already going to see this - particularly as it should offer more in the way of story for Deckard's Big Secret - and the additions of Villeneuve and new star Ryan Gosling should also bring in a new audience.

In all honesty, Villeneuve is one of very few directors who would have been welcome even tackling a sequel, and while it's a long time since we've been to this world, his vision offers hope that it'll be like returning to an old friend.

And hopefully we'll get a more grounded villain performance by Jared Leto after the problematic Joker stuff.
