Early life

[edit]

Richard Harmon was born in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada.[3] His parents are director Allan Harmon and producer Cynde Harmon; his sister is actress Jessica Harmon.

Career

[edit]

Harmon made his acting debut in the 2002 television series Jeremiah.[4]

In March 2024, Harmon was cast as Erik Campbell in Final Destination Bloodlines, the sixth installment in the Final Destination franchise.[5][6] A lifelong fan of the franchise, Harmon did not receive an update on his audition for eight months due to the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike.[6] Harmon described Erik as "a bit of a dick" but recognized the immense love the character has for his family.[6] During filming, Harmon often improvised his lines and filmed his own stunts.[7][8] Following Bloodlines' release in May 2025, Harmon received positive reviews for his performance, with /Film's BJ Colangelo and Jacob Oller of The A.V. Club describing him as a scene stealer.[9][10] Todd Gilchrist, writing for Variety, praised Harmon's performance as "surprisingly thoughtful",[11] while Beatrice Loayza of The New York Times described him as a "comic standout".[12]
