Jared Leto is one of Hollywoods most talented actors, and while he has often pushed the performance of the characters he has portrayed farther than most actors would, sometimes he has pushed too far. His recent interpretation of the Joker in David Ayer's Suicide Squad is a case in point, whereby had the characters flamboyance been dialed back a little and the character's wardrobe quietened slightly, then the audiences would have been more positively responsive to the character. Typically with character actors such as Leto, Tom Hardy, Benedict Cumberbatch and Gary Oldman, less is usually more when 'becoming' the character you are portraying. Thankfully it seems Leto has learned this lesson and seems to be giving a more reserved and controlled performance as Niander Wallace, the antagonist in the forthcoming Blade Runner 2049.

after the CHERRY 2000-esque like intro, one thing I don't think some hear, is that there is a difference in some of the opening Leto audio, it is definitely a mixture of another voice... I believe(Don't read anymore if you don't want to read what could be a potential SPOILER)

 

 

 

 

"Replicants are the future of the species." is that of Dr. Eldon Tyrell, I'm almost 99.9 % certain(same cadence, warm tone, etc. just it is obviously mixed with electronics), I recall there being talk of a cameo from a previous character(of course there is Gaff who is already listed in credits).

In the original film's script, there was a scene(never lensed)after Batty's killing of the tycoon is because he knows this is really a Replicant of Tyrell. Roy asks Sebastian to take him to the "Real" 'Maker'(and why the original line was "I Want More Life F*#ker" instead of the later changed 'Father' for THE FINAL CUT), it is then they take another elevator ride up the corporate Pyramid to one more level which Sebastian has a key(around his neck)for. This houses an elaborate cryo crypt where Tyell lies frozen, having contracted an incurable disease until they found a cure. Sebastian sadly also reveals that whilst maintaining it, he accidentally screwed up, and killed him in stasis. I'm wondering if Scott uses a 'nod' to DARK STAR(ALIENS has one with Bishop's knife trick), the comedic bastard precursor of ALIEN by it's own creator, Dan O'Bannon. In the film they converse with it's dead Commander Powell in cryo( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8LQL4LPyq7U&t=35s ), which has an incredibly similar vocal effect heard, much like in the above quote from this trailer.
