[i]Denis Villeneuve shares his passion for the original Blade Runner. "It is by far one of my favorite movies of all time," he tells Crave's film content editor William Bibbiani, adding, "As a huge Blade Runner fan I realized that [the new movie] makes sense."[/i] [i][/i] [i]But while Denis Villeneuve must remain tight-lipped about the plot of the new Blade Runner, it's actually a plot point from the original movie that he cannot touch with a ten foot pole: Is Deckard, as originally played by Harrison Ford, a replicant or a human being?[/i] [i][/i] [i]It's a question that Blade Runner fans have been debating for decades. "Now that I am on the other side of the fence I cannot answer," Villeneuve laughs.[/i] [i][/i] [i]But is the filmmaker concerned about the possibility that, if the new Blade Runner does answer some of these lingering questions, those revelations will impact the original, classic film? "Totally, the thing I must say is that I love mystery. I love shadows. I love doubts. I would just want to say to the fans that we will take care of that mystery. I will take care of it."[/i]
