The Tyrell Corporation is a central entity in the 1982 science fiction film Blade Runner, directed by Ridley Scott. The company is depicted as a massive conglomerate that specializes in genetic engineering and the creation of replicants, synthetic beings designed for labor and dangerous off-world exploration. The corporation is run by the enigmatic and reclusive founder, Dr. Eldon Tyrell, who resides in a towering pyramid-like structure in the heart of Los Angeles. The Tyrell Corporation's creation of advanced and nearly-human replicants leads to conflict with the film's protagonist, a "blade runner" named Deckard, who is tasked with hunting down rogue replicants. The company's portrayal in the film highlights the dangers and ethical questions that arise with the development of advanced technologies, particularly those that blur the lines between human and synthetic life.
