UPDATE (5/4/2016): This has now been confirmed. Dave Bautista has officially joined the cast of Blade Runner 2.

Original story:

Bautista is holding an origami unicorn in the pic, which is a clear reference to the end of the original Blade Runner. In addition to Ryan Gosling and the returning Harrison Ford, Blade Runner 2 recently added Robin Wright to its cast. If this is any indication it looks like we can expect another official announcement fairly soon.

I like to think that this was Bautista's reaction when he found out the Blade Runner news...

Directed by Denis Villeneuve and starring Ryan Gosling, Robin Wright, and Harrison Ford, filming on Blade Runner 2 is set to commence next summer, with a release date yet to be confirmed.
