Trivia:
|
- The title "Blade Runner" was borrowed from a never-produced screenplay by William S. Burroughs.
- Harrison Ford takes issue with Ridley Scott's revelation that Deckard is a replicant. "We had agreed that he definitely was not a replicant," Ford said.
- The building used in the final chase scene between Decker and Roy, the Bradbury, was the same building used in the 1964 episode of the original Outer Limits titled 'The Demon With a Glass Hand' starring Robert Culp.
- The mold used for the rooftop of the Police Headquarters building was originally a mold used in the Special Edition of Close Encounters of the Third Kind. It is the saucer-like ceiling Richard Dreyfuss stands under after he enters the Mothership.
- The opening sequence was a shot of the I.C.I. Chemical Plant in Wilton, Teesside, UK - very close to Ridley Scott's (and Tony Scott) place of birth.
