More Human than Human

The Tyrell Corporation is a high-tech firm primarily involved in the design and production of genetically engineered biological androids known as Replicants, which are sold as slave laborers and soldiers in the off-world colonies. The company is based in Los Angeles and named after its founder and CEO, Dr. Eldon Tyrell.

Blade Runner is a 1982 science fiction film directed by Ridley Scott, and written by Hampton Fancher and David Peoples. Starring Harrison Ford, Rutger Hauer, Sean Young and Edward James Olmos, it is loosely based on Philip K. Dick's novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? (1968). The film is set in a dystopian future Los Angeles of 2019, in which synthetic humans known as replicants are bio-engineered by the powerful Tyrell Corporation to work at space colonies. When a fugitive group of advanced replicants led by Roy Batty (Hauer) escapes back to Earth, burnt-out cop Rick Deckard (Ford) reluctantly agrees to hunt them down.

Blade Runner Tyrell Corporation Nexus 6 Orange

The Nexus-6 were a series of replicants developed by Eldon Tyrell and his genetic design team to be more human than all previous Nexus models. The Nexus-6 was produced by 2018, when a group of combat model Nexus-6 replicants staged a mutiny in the Off-world colonies. This event prompted replicants as a whole to be prohibited on Earth. The following year, a group of Nexus-6 replicants led by Roy Batty hijacked a transport and went to Earth in search of a way to extend their lifespans.
