Actor Ryan Gosling, who was just 14 years old when first watched the 1982's Blade Runner now stars in the sequel 'Blade Runner 2049'.
Talking about the 1982 film, the Oscar winning actor said: "I was about 14 years old, which I think was 12 years after the original had come out. So, I think my first impression was just the realization of how influential it had been on so much of what I had grown up watching and listening to."
Talking about the sequel the actor says it is haunting and makes one question the idea of what it means to be human.
"The film is haunting. It's hard to shake. It asks you to question your idea of what it means to be human. It makes you question your ability to recognize the hero from the villain," Gosling said in a statement.
"It is a nightmarish vision of the future that's somehow grounded and real and feels possible, and yet it's presented in this sort of romantic dream-like way; so that sticks with you. Time has kind of proven its specialness," he added.
A sequel of 1982's Blade Runner, Blade Runner 2049 is set thirty years after the events of the first film. The film stars, Indiana Jones actor Harrison Ford, Ana de Armas, Jared Leto, Robin Wright and Dave Bautista.
