Michael Dennis Bryant (5 April 1928 – 25 April 2002) was a British stage and television actor.
Bryant attended Battersea Grammar School and after service in the Merchant Navy and Army, he attended drama school and appeared in many productions on the London stage. He made his film debut in 1955. His greatest role was Mathieu in BBC2's 1970 adaptation of Jean-Paul Sartre''s Roads to Freedom trilogy. His guest star appearance as the Wing Commander Marsh, who feigns insanity in the 'tweedledum e' episode of the BBC drama series, Colditz (1972), is still widely remembered.
Bryant was chosen by Orson Welles to play the lead role in The Deep, Welles's adaptation of the Charles Williams novel Dead Calm. The production frequently ran out of money, and following the death of actor Laurence Harvey in 1973, Welles stopped production and announced the movie - which had been completed except for one special effects shot of a ship exploding - would not be released. (The novel was finally adapted to film in 1989.)
