Henry Gupta is a fictional character from the James Bond film, Tomorrow Never Dies. He is played by American actor and magician Ricky Jay.
A radical student at Berkeley in the 1960's, Gupta became a techo-terrorist, selling his services for money. He is employed by Elliot Carver to steer the HMS Devonshire off course in the south China Sea, and provides all the technology and surveillance at Carver's offices, as well as programming a nuclear missile to strike Beijing - "Press the magic button, Beijing disappears."
Once Bond has located the stealth ship on which Gupta and Carver are sailing, Gupta is captured and offered as a trade for the already-captured Wai Lin. Carver executes Gupta once he has established that he is surplus to requirements.
