Dave Bautista is all set to join the cast of 'Blade Runner 2.'

The 47-year-old wrestler- turned-actor is the latest addition to the sci-fi sequel that already stars Ryan Gosling, Harrison Ford, Robin Wright and Ana de Armas, reports News24.com.

Bautista teased fans about his new role three weeks ago when he posted a photograph of himself holding a tiny origami unicorn. Now he has posted a video on his Twitter account and revealed the news.

In the clip, the 'Spectre' star is heard saying, "Hey guys, Dave Bautista here, and as speculated I am proud and honoured to announce that I am joining the cast of new 'Blade Runner', Blade Runner 2, directed by the amazing Denis Villeneuve. I'm very excited about this project and very grateful that I was able to bring the news to you myself. Couldn't be more proud. Another dream come true, anyway you heard it here first. Blade Runner 2. Peace."

The production of the flick which is being directed by Ridley Scott will begin in July.
