47. Rick Deckard

Appearance: Blade Runner

Creators: Philip K. Dick, Hampton Fancher, David Webb Peoples

Performer: Harrison Ford

Defining moment: Deckard’s place as futuristic gumshoe/assassin is defined by his brutal shooting of replicant snake dancer Zhora and the bitter look that goes with it.

Fascinating fact: When Ridley Scott first met with Ford he was shooting Raiders and arrived in Indy’s hat. Scott ditched the idea of Deckard wearing a fedora immediately and gave him the buzz cut.
