Blade Runner 2099 Final Trailer Teases the Fight to Take Back Los Angeles

The last look at Blade Runner 2099 before launch shows the humans of Los Angeles plotting to take their city back, with Cora caught in the middle.

Prime Video has released the final trailer for Blade Runner 2099, and the last look at the limited series before launch puts the human side of its power shift front and center. Where the earlier trailers dwelled on a Los Angeles remade by replicants, this one is about the people living under that rule — and the ones quietly plotting to end it.

The final trailer, released by Prime Video on November 9, opens over an orange-hazed city of spinners and wreckage with a question: "Are you a good human, or a bad one?" A voice recalls the moment the balance flipped — "I was there when replicants took our land, when we gave it to them" — before another urges Cora to help "take back our city," framing the series' endgame as an open struggle over who Los Angeles belongs to.

Cora's own position in that fight looks deliberately unstable. One voice asks who their sister is pretending to be, cutting to Cora passing herself off as a Blade Runner, while another instructs someone to do whatever she asks and earn her trust, sneering that "humans are always the same." The trailer's sharpest line doubles as its warning: "Whatever you can build, you can destroy."

Watch the final trailer here:

The series is set 50 years after Blade Runner 2049, in a Los Angeles where replicants hold the power humans once used to hunt them. Hunter Schafer stars as Cora, a fugitive who has survived by cycling through borrowed identities and takes on one final identity as a Blade Runner, while Michelle Yeoh plays Olwen, a replicant Blade Runner nearing the end of her engineered lifespan.

The final trailer shifts the emphasis away from the case at the center of October's New York Comic Con footage, which followed Cora and Olwen's uneasy partnership into the disappearance of 38 replicants and a conspiracy tied to a criminal gang of replicants. This time the conspiracy runs in the other direction, with Cora courted by humans who see what she is doing as a way to make the world theirs again.

The ensemble around the two leads includes series regulars Dimitri Abold and Lewis Gribben, with Katelyn Rose Downey, Daniel Rigby, Johnny Harris, Amy Lennox, Sheila Atim, Matthew Needham, Tom Burke and Maurizio Lombardi in recurring roles. Silka Luisa serves as showrunner and executive producer, Ridley Scott executive produces, and Jonathan van Tulleken directed the first two episodes.

Luisa has described the eight episodes as a complete story in themselves, and the final trailer sells exactly that — a closed-end fight for a city. All eight episodes of Blade Runner 2099 premiere on Prime Video on November 25, 2026, in more than 240 countries and territories, with Blade Runner: The Final Cut and Blade Runner 2049 both streaming on the service for anyone catching up first.
