Wait, stop -- don't throw yourself out that window just yet! It may or may not be as bad as it looks/sounds. According to Slashfilm, one of their readers attended a Q&A session with one of the writers of Eagle Eye, which was hosted by Creative Screenwriting magazine. During said Q&A, the writer, Travis Wright, said that he and his partner John Glenn were working through "various treatments for a Blade Runner sequel over the last couple years." Apparently, they've been working alongside Blade Runner co-executive producer Bud Yorkin, and all of this has been done outside the studio system -- meaning this is in no way a done deal, only that these writers are trying to put together their best package in the hopes a studio will bite.

As of right now, Ridley Scott is nowhere near the project (although both guys are working on a Warriors remake for Tony Scott), and given the somewhat negative reaction to Eagle Eye, I imagine most fans will take a similar approach. In my opinion, Blade Runner is a film you don't touch and you don't sequel-ize, but perhaps I'm in the minority. Maybe there's a very cool way of doing it -- maybe I'm wrong, and maybe this is a project fans can get behind. What do you think? Blade Runner 2? Could it happen? Would you watch it?

Update: Eagle Eye co-writer John Glenn responded via email to this. Here's part of what he said: "There was a point where Travis and I were working with Bud Yorkin on a sequel to Blade Runner, but that was years back. It never got too far off the ground because the movie is so perfect, so the more we thought about it, the more uneasy we became with the idea. Anyway, just an note to clear the air."

These days, it seems Paul Walker cannot be in a film unless there's drugs, sex, violence ... or a group of adorable sled dogs. Variety reports the actor (who was once positioned to be the next Brad Pitt) has signed on to star in The Heaven Project, which -- and here's where you Walker fans can breathe a sigh of relief -- does not mean his career has died and gone to heaven. Instead, it's an independently financed thriller written by John Glenn -- who will also make his directorial debut.

Along with Variety's odd description of "a love story set in the framework of a psychological thriller" comes an equally odd plot synopsis; apparently, Walker will play a man who loses everything he loves and must piece his life back together by overcoming great obstacles. Um, can we be a little bit more vague? Glenn (as well as his ex-writing partner Travis Wright) recently wrote drafts for a bunch of remakes, including Clash of the Titans (Warner Bros.), Journey to the Center of the Earth (Fox) and The Warriors (Paramount). Pic also marks the first company credit for Walker's new production shingle Be Good (as in, "I just signed on to another edgy drama, please let it be good"). Walker can next be seen impersonating a deceased drug lord in The Death and Life of Bobby Z due out later this year.
