A live concert screening will give film fans "a brand new way" to watch a celebrated sci-fi classic.

Blade Runner Live will see Ridley Scott's much-loved film screened with its synthesiser score performed in person.

The touring version of the cult film will come to Brighton as part of a national tour after first playing at the Royal Albert Hall in 2019.

Lucy Noble, artistic director at organisers AEG Presents, said:  "We are thrilled to be presenting Blade Runner Live across the UK next September. 

"It’s amazing after 42 years the film and soundtrack still stand the test of time. This will be a truly amazing and unique way for audiences to revisit this iconic piece of cinema with Vangelis’ iconic score as they’ve never experienced it before."
