Sean Young Is Crazy Example # 4234234234; Water Is Wet
Old news, I grant you. This fits comfortably in the "No shit, Sherlock" index. I'm also not sure if she's pulling our leg (One thing to read something that was said and another to hear from outta the person’s mouth; for all we know, there could have been sarcasm in her voice, I don't know).
Nonetheless, Entertainment Weekly asked documented Pain-in-the-Ass-Few-Will-Work-With Sean Young on the prospects of her participating in Ridey Scott's Blade Runner follow-up (sequel, prequel, "re-imagining," whatever):
"Mmm, let's see. Alcon – they're the ones that own it and apparently they have Ridley to direct it — and when I met with them they didn’t make any offer-plans to include me. And when I called Ridley Scott's office, he doesn't call me back. So I guess they're going to go, like, prequel or...I don't know what they're going to do. But my official opinion is that, if they don’t include me in it, everybody should boycott it. Because it's stupid not to have me in it. It's really stupid. That’s my opinion! I mean, you try to tell people something sensible in Hollywood and sometimes they just don't listen, you know. And they usually pay the price too, because everybody’s an expert."
Whether she was kidding around or not, don't hold your breath, Sean. No one in their right mind will fork over the $200-$300 million required to make another Blade Runner. No boycott necessary.
