Katy Perry Wants to Play Rachael in BLADE RUNNER 2
It's no secret that director Ridley Scott is in the process of developing a sequel to his classic sci-fi film, Blade Runner. Slowly but surely I'm sure it will happen. One of the Green Lantern scribes, Michael Green, was recently hired to write the script. That doesn't spark much confidence, though, because the Green Lantern had a terrible script.
It looks like pop star Katy Perry is looking to expand her horizons beyond The Smurfs animated movies, and she wants in on the Blade Runner 2 action. In fact, she is openly campaigning for the role of Rachael. Here's what she had to say in an interview with Metro,
"With films, I hope to win you all over with animation and then do other films. I am really interested in comedy, and I would really love to play Rachael in 'Blade Runner 2,' if Ridley would just call!"
Perry definitely has the look! But has she got the acting chops? It's hard to tell in an animated movie like The Smurfs. The thing is, we've still got few years to go before Scott gets around to making this film, if he gets around to at all. His next film will be the the Moses-inspired movie, Exodus. That gives Perry at least a couple of years to get herself a real acting gig to show what she's got.
Do you think Perry would make a good Rachael in Blade Runner 2?
