Blade Runner updated for reissue

Ridley Scott's sci-fi classic Blade Runner, one of the first movies to appear on DVD in 1997, is being restored and remastered for a brief reissue in September.

The DVD, featuring the 1992 director's cut, will be deleted after four months, and replaced by a 25th anniversary final cut, which is being billed as Scott's "definitive new version" of the film.

After a limited theatrical release, the newly spruced-up Runner will be released in a multidisc special edition DVD.
