List of Blade Runner Characters - Harry Bryant

Harry Bryant

Bryant is the captain of the Rep-Detect department of the Los Angeles Police Department. His job in the film is to deal with a group of escaped Nexus-6 replicants (whom he refers to as "skinjobs") that have landed on Earth. His top Blade Runner, Holden, was in hospital on a Medical ventilator after an encounter with a replicant. Bryant uses thinly-veiled threats against Rick Deckard — a retired blade runner — to enlist his aid.

In the original theatrical version, Deckard, during his narration, compares Bryant to the racist cops of the past. "Skinjob, that was Bryant's term for Replicants. In history books, he's the kind of cop that used to call Black men niggers."

Played by M. Emmet Walsh.
