The world of Blade Runner, based originally on the Phillip K. Dick novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?, has remained relatively unexplored over the years despite being a seminal modern sci-fi series. Now, in addition to the original film and the stellar 2017 sequel, Blade Runner fans are getting a CGI anime series called Blade Runner: Black Lotus. And the creators behind it have finally revealed details about the show's characters and story, as well as the first trailer and key art, during a 2021 Comic-Con virtual panel.

Watch the Blade Runner: Black Lotus trailer below:

The trailer itself is all style, with few concrete details, but thankfully, we gleaned those from the Comic-Con panel itself. The panel featured co-directors Shinji Aramaki and Kenji Kamiyama, executive producer Joseph Chou, voice director Wes Gleason, and actress Jessica Henwick, who plays the show's main character, a replicant named Elle. It was moderated by Adult Swim's Jason Demarco, a development executive on the show and co-creator of the Toonami programming block.
