Ridley Scott's "true cut" of "Blade Runner," originally slated for release this month, has been pushed back to fall so the Oscar-nominated director (for "Thelma & Louise") can further refine his re-edit of his 1982 science fiction thriller starring Harrison Ford, Rutger Hauer, Daryl Hannah and Sean Young.

Mr Scott needs to finish "Christopher Columbus," with Gerard Depardieu in the title role, first.
