Blade Runner Guía y cronología
Replicants are built to serve, yet their memories and desires trouble the people assigned to hunt them. Blade Runner turns that conflict into a rain-soaked study of identity, labor and loneliness. The films, animated stories and shorts explore its screen worlds, while Philip K. Dick's source novel offers a distinct starting point.

Blade Runner: the screen world and the book that inspired it
Begin screen viewing with Blade Runner, then follow later productions in release context. Read Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? as a separate source novel, not a screen prequel.

Choose a film cut deliberately; different presentations of the original are not consecutive films.
Overview & recommendation
The original film is the introduction to the screen world's replicants, investigators and uneasy questions about memory. Later shorts and series can return to periods before a sequel without being the best first encounter.
Philip K. Dick's novel provides another version of the premise. Its publication date and its own setting do not belong at the beginning of the films' internal chronology.
Watch the original film first and use release context for the later screen stories. Consider the shorts and Black Lotus with their own placement and spoiler context rather than assuming an earlier year makes them compulsory first viewing.
Screen continuity and literary source Inspired by a novel, not identical to it
Film Canon groups the represented live-action and animated screen stories. Source Material holds the novel as its own reading experience; licensed works outside this selection require separate canon evidence.
