Harrison Ford's potential involvement in a Blade Runner sequel has been denied by the head of Alcon Entertainment, Andrew Kosove, and the company teaming with Ridley Scott who are trying to make it happen.

He said, "It is absolutely patently false that there has been any discussion about Harrison Ford being in Blade Runner," he told told Deadline.com. "To be clear, what we are trying to do with Ridley now is go through the painstaking process of trying to break the back of the story, figure out the direction we're going to take the movie [in] and find a writer to work on it. The casting of the movie could not be further from our minds at this moment. He added, finally, "What Ridley does in Prometheus is a good template for what we're trying to do. He created something that has some association to the original Alien, but [that] lives on its own as a standalone movie."

If Prometheus is successful, it'll be interesting to see how many other franchises go down a similar route.
