The long-awaited sequel to Blade Runner has been in the news a lot lately, but audiences have yet to learn when they might actually see the film. According to Variety, however, the sci-fi followup will finally hit theaters on January 12, 2018.

Harrison Ford will return as Rick Deckard, who’s been confirmed to be a Replicant, and Ryan Gosling is also set to star. Sony has acquired the film’s international distribution rights, but Warner Bros. will handle its domestic release.
