hmmm…bladerunner based/inspired series on the web

Posted by Mick (SplaTT) Stanic under: Bladerunner .

It appears that the director Ridley Scott is involved in creating a web based series of 5 to 10 minute shorts that are inspired by the original “Bladerunner” movie (IMDb & Wikipedia) and the Philip K. Dick novel, “Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?”.

It’s going to be called “Purefold” and will be based in the period just before 2019 where the move was set.

It could be good…or it could be bad…but I can’t wait to see how it turns out.

It’s also being brand-funded with WPP, Publicis, Aegis and Naked Communications signing up clients to take part in it.
