Luv’s Motivations
When I first watched Blade Runner 2049, I envisioned that Luv secretly wanted to revolt from Wallace’s grasp and free the replicants once they discover the ability to reproduce like humans. But reading online, it looks like many say that she is fiercely loyal to Wallace. I always struck her as scared of him and waiting for the moment to free her species.
In this way, both Luv and K are “protagonists” in their own ways. Luv wants to free the replicants while K just wants to reunite the child with her father. But I guess Luv is less of a sympathetic antagonist in the way that she wants to continue the slavery of her kind?
