Returning to the world of Blade Runner makes for an interesting trailer challenge for the studio’s marketing department. For many the film is one of the true classics of sci-fi, with a unique style and a tone that’s far more contemplative than most. However, there are also a lot of people out there who’ve never seen it and have grown up on a diet of bloated sci-fi excess. So how do you appeal to both crowds?
Damien Chazelle has the world at his feet following his Best Director Oscar win for La La Land. He’s decided his next project will be a biopic of Neil Armstrong, called First Man. The cast is now fast coming together, as in the last couple of days, it’s been revealed that Corey Stoll, Kyle Chandler and Jason Clarke will join Ryan Gosling in the film.
