Mackenzie Davis Cast In Blade Runner Sequel

The Blade Runner sequel, which still has no official title, continues to staff up. Harrison Ford was the first returnee, and Ryan Gosling, Dave Bautista, Ana de Armas, Carla Juri, and Robin Wright have all been cast over the case of recent weeks. Now, Mackenzie Davis is the latest add, after appearing in The Martian and Halt and Catch Fire.

Blade Runner's sequel is directed by Denis Villeneuve, and aside from a director and cast, it's being held as a rare Hollywood secret. Ford is once again playing Rick Deckard and the film takes place, in something approximating real time, a few decades after the original film. The ever-growing cast should be nearly complete, as the movie is ready to start shooting next month for Warner Bros.

Mackenzie Davis has had several smaller roles in films and shorts, but has broken out in Halt and Catch Fire on AMC. The series has run two seasons, with a third season picked up to commence this August. She stars alongside Lee Pace, Scoot McNairy on the series.
