‘Blade Runner 2099’: Jonathan Van Tulleken Set To Direct As Amazon Series Gears Up For Production In New Location


Coming off directing the first two episodes of Shōgun, Jonathan van Tulleken has been tapped to direct the first two episodes of Blade Runner 2099.

In May, a couple of weeks into the writers strike, it was revealed that, due to the work stoppage, production on Blade Runner 2099 was delayed, likely until spring 2024. Michael Green, who wrote Blade Runner 2049, serves as a non-writing executive producer, along with Alcon Entertainment co-founders Andrew Kosove and Broderick Johnson, Alcon’s head of television Ben Roberts, David W. Zucker and Clayton Krueger from Scott Free Productions, Cynthia Yorkin, Frank Giustra, and Isa Dick Hackett. In 2011, Alcon secured film, television, and ancillary franchise rights to produce prequels and sequels to the 1982 science-fiction thriller Blade Runner.
