Rent a hammer drill for 4 hours
Don't do this. Buy a cheap arse one from Harbor Freight and you can get a lot more use out of it than you think

yall realize you can just use a cordless impact, no need for a hammer drill although it does make it easier and quicker.
hell i mounted 40' of conduit yesterday on to the brick using my impact, proper bit and tap cons.

Once you crack the brick you are screwed... expandable Inserts go into the drilled out mortar, as most likely the bricks are hollow core.... I am not a contractor...
My contractor repeatedly told me to drill into the mortar since bricks have the hollow parts and you can’t guarantee you will hit the solid part.

Glad your contractor didn't build my house.

your contractor is dumb first off
2nd even if you hit the hollow part if you use wedge anchors it will be fine, especially with 4 anchors minimum.

I got the 70inch hung and leveled with one person helping in about an hour. Hammer drill and 4 tapcons. It’s still hanging on the wall after 3 days 
Thanks again for the advice and reassurance
