WithBlade Runner 2049opening in North America on October 6th, the other day I got to sit down with directorDenis Villeneuvefor an exclusive video interview. During our spoiler-free conversation he talked about how he was able to pull off the sequel, how he was never asked to plant seeds for possible future movies, getting to work with Director of PhotographyRoger Deakinsfor the third time, how he used color to help tell the story, if he ran into budget or time limitations while making the sequel, deleted scenes, and a lot more.
