Clint Eastwood had played “Dirty Harry” five times in the sequels ‘ Magnum Force‘, ‘The Enforcer’, ‘ Sudden Impact‘ and ‘ The Dead Pool.’ Callahan is always in a situation where he has to be his own judge and jury… Harry always gets somebody who’s very lethal… In the case of “Dirty Harry”, it was a psychopathic killer… Callahan wants to get him off the streets so that nobody else becomes a victim… He is a man on the side of the public… He feels that the law is wrong and he should fight that or try to solve it… Harry is not a man who stands for violence… He is a man who can’t understand society tolerating violence…

The line, "My, that's a big one," spoken by Scorpio when Callahan removes his gun, was an ad-lib by Robinson.

Scott claimed that he was initially offered the role, but the script's violent nature led him to turn it down.

Although ABC wanted to turn it into a TV movie, the amount of violence in the script was deemed excessive for television, so the rights were sold to Warner Bros.

And the attitude of Dirty Harry, being a cop who was ruthless. I think it's fairly obvious if you look at the rest of my work what parts are mine. The cop being the same as the killer except he has a badge. And being lonely ... I wanted it to be like Stray Dog; I was thinking in terms of Kurosawa's detective films."
