## Notes

	+ In his second audition, he had a more specific script from the game.

* Bryan Dechart stated that Data from the famous sci-fi TV series *Star Trek: The Next Generation* and [[1]] from the famous sci-fi action film [Matrix] served as inspirations while preparing for his role.
	+ Harrison Ford is his all-time favorite actor and was his inspiration for deviant Connor's smirk and swagger.
* While shooting the game, he never actually met his co-stars Valorie Curry and Jesse Williams. Because of scheduling, they filmed all their scenes separately and they were edited together.
	+ During a panel at San Diego Comic-Con 2019, Bryan and Jesse met for the first time in real life.
* While portraying Connor, Bryan improvised in some scenes.
* Connor's serial number in the finished game, **#313 248 317-51**, was decided on by Bryan Dechart: 313 for the Detroit area code, 248 for his home area code (Novi, Michigan), 317 for his birthday (March 17th), 5 for the number of people in his family, and 1 as it is the first Connor.
* Connor doing his quarter coin tricks was motion-capture acted by Bryan Dechart, although without the coin, which was added in later.
* In addition to his work for the game, Bryan Dechart also played Connor in an interactive theater experience that was part of the game's marketing.
* Bryan Dechart did the performance capture for Isaac Falone.
* According to Bryan Dechart, animators of Quantic Dream replaced all of the pigeons in the abandoned apartment with Connor models at one occasion. Therefore, a bunch of little Connor models were scattered through the place and even fly up into the air.
* His favorite line in the script is *"I like dogs"*, and according to him, when he told this to David Cage, he was not happy about it.
* A life-size statue of Connor based on Bryan Dechart's likeness is created for a museum at Grévin in Paris.
* He has an Instagram page and a Twitch channel where he streams with his wife, Amelia Rose Blaire.
