COMPANY
Taking its name from the first successful NASA mission to transmit images of the Moon’s surface back to Earth, RANGER 7 FILMS was launched in 2012 with a spirit of adventure, ambition, and achievement.
With a combined 30 years of experience in the motion picture industry, the principals of RANGER 7 FILMS have collectively worked on the producing side of more than 35 completed, fully distributed motion pictures through their entire cycle from inception through production, delivery, and distribution.
Drawing on the principals’ experience on films ranging from Disney’s hit sequel to family favorite BEVERLY HILLS CHIHUAHUA through HBO’s Emmy- and Golden Globe-winning TAKING CHANCE and action/thrillers MEETING EVIL starring Samuel L. Jackson and Luke Wilson and LINEWATCH starring Oscar-winner Cuba Gooding, Jr., the RANGER 7 FILMS mission is to produce creatively-driven, marketable projects across genres and on a range of budget levels as well as to assist third-party producers, financiers, completion guarantors, and lenders by providing a full range of production services.
RANGER 7 FILMS’s current development slate includes a live-action reimagining of the iconic Japanese Manga superhero character ASTRO BOY, as well as several other high-profile Japanese properties. RANGER 7 FILMS is also in development on the edgy crime thriller HURT, written by Patrick Melton and Marcus Dunstan (SAW IV – SAW VII, THE COLLECTOR, THE COLLECTION); sci-fi action thriller PERMANENCE, written by Adam Alleca (THE LAST HOUSE ON THE LEFT, Stephen King’s CELL, STANDOFF); and the limited TV series ONE-MAN WAR, based on the true story of a Civil War sniper.
RANGER 7 FILMS most recently produced film was the action-thriller feature EXTRACTION for Sony Pictures Entertainment’s digital streaming service Crackle, written and directed by Tony Giglio (CHAOS, IN ENEMY HANDS), and starring martial arts phenomenon Jon Foo (TEKKEN), Danny Glover (LETHAL WEAPON, THE ROYAL TENENBAUMS), Sean Astin (THE LORD OF THE RINGS, THE GOONIES), Vinnie Jones (LOCK, STOCK, AND TWO SMOKING BARRELS, SNATCH), and Joanne Kelly (Syfy’s WAREHOUSE 13).
