Prime Video released the full trailer for its new sci-fi series *Blade Runner 2099* at New York Comic-Con, marking a significant update after a partial reveal at San Diego Comic-Con in July. Showrunner Silka Luisa described the setting as fifty years after the events of *Blade Runner 2049*, where a replicant uprising has succeeded and humans have lost control. Luisa explained that the series explores what happens when a species ends and a new one rises, shifting the focus from mortality on a micro level to humanity’s survival on a macro level. Co-stars Michelle Yeoh and Hunter Schafer joined Luisa onstage for the presentation.

Yeoh stars as Olwen, a dying replicant, while Schafer plays Cora. The cast also includes Hugo Hamlet, Dmitri Abold, Lewis Gribben, Katelyn Rose Downey, Daniel Rigby, Johnny Harris, Amy Lennox, Sheila Atim, Matthew Needham, Tom Burke, and Maurizio Lombardi in undisclosed roles. Prime Video will release all eight episodes on November 25, 2026.

The event also featured a new trailer for *Godzilla Minus Zero*, the sequel to Takashi Yamazaki’s hit film *Godzilla Minus One*. The original movie followed pilot Kōichi Shikishima, who struggled with survivor’s guilt after failing to stop Godzilla from attacking Odo Island in 1945. He later died fighting the monster to atone for his failure, though he survived thanks to forgiveness and mechanical ingenuity. *Godzilla Minus Zero* is set two years later in a war-torn Japan struggling to recover. The official synopsis states that just as humanity clings to peace, a new threat strikes, ending everything. Most of the original cast returns, including Ryunosuke Kamiki, Minami Hamabe, Sae Nagatani, Hidetaka Yoshioka, Kuranosuke Sasaki, Miou Tanaka, Sakura Ando, Yuki Yamada, Min Tanaka, and Masami Nagasawa. The film hits theaters on November 3, 2026. Legendary Pictures plans to release *Godzilla x Kong: Supernova* in 2027.
