Denis Villeneuve's epic sequel would've looked quite different.
The Big Picture David Bowie passed away in 2016, leaving his fans from all over the world devastated at the loss of one of the most impactful musical icons of the last century. His untimely death prevented him from appearing in one of the most anticipated films of 2017, where he was supposed to play the role of the antagonist in Denis Villeneuve's Blade Runner 2049.
After working together on Prisoners, Alcon trusted Villeneuve to guide Blade Runner into the modern era of blockbuster filmmaking, with the director bringing back Harrison Ford in his role of Rick Deckard from the first movie. But there was something different about the sequel, and both the production company and Villeneuve himself knew they needed a new lead for their story. Eventually, they wound up casting Ryan Gosling as K, a replicant who was programmed to look for a very important person.
Wallace finds evidence of Rachel having a secret child some time after the first installment takes place, which goes against the popular belief that the replicants aren't capable of reproducing. If Wallace manages to get the information out, he can make the rest of the replicants around the world listen to what he has to say, starting the revolution that he desperately needs.
David Bowie's Legacy in Film It would have certainly been a treat to see Bowie star in Blade Runner 2049, but even if the singer didn't have a chance to play the antagonist in Villeneuve's sequel, he still left behind a powerful legacy when it comes to the side of his career that focused on film.
