House Arrest?

Actually, a long awaited sequel of the iconic Ridley Scott sci-fi noir loosely based on Philip K. ****'s Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep is set to begin principal filming in July, helmed by Sicario director Denis Villeneuve, with a planned release date of October 2017. Original director Scott will produce, original co-writer Hampton Fancher also contributed to this script, and original lead Harrison Ford will be reprising his role as Rick Deckard, set a few decades after the events in the 1982 classic (at the time Scott was coming off of Alien, and he contrasted the gleaming interiors of the previous film with relelentlessly bleak, grungy exteriors in perpetual dark, smoke and rain). Ryan Goffsling has also been cast and will be juggling his dual career of new LA Rams starting QB with that of Hollywood film star.

"A mentor and long-departed competitor once told me that it was time to put away childish things and abandon my 'toys.' He encouraged me to come work for him and together we would take over the world and become the new Gods. That's how he ran his corporation, like a God on top of a pyramid overlooking a city of angels. Of course, he chose to replicate the power of creation in an unoriginal way, by simply copying God. And look how that turned out for the poor *******. Literally blew up in the old man's face. I always suggested he stick with simple robotics instead of those genetic abominations he enslaved and sold off-world, although his idea to implant them with false memories was, well... 'amusing,' is how I would put it politely."

A little more detail on Blade Runner 2 from a 2015 article.

I'm encouraged by Ridley Scott being attached, at least as producer, as well as Ford. Not sure if Ryan Goffsling is a Bladerunner or Replicant, but his job will be complicated by having to juggle principle shooting while being the starting QB of the Rams? 

Rams #1 overall pick presser

I liked Prometheus (Blade Runner, Alien), which also may have a few sequels in the works.

Can't think of a Scott sci fi I didn't like (albeit those were DIRECTED by him).
