Jeff Rice

Producer

Jeff Rice is one of Hollywood’s most accomplished independent producers, with a career spanning more than 140 feature films as a producer and executive producer. Known for his commercial instincts and creative range, Rice has consistently delivered projects that resonate with both audiences and critics worldwide. Prior to entering the film industry, Rice built a successful career as the owner of a real estate and mortgage company-experience that has proven invaluable in navigating film finance, structuring complex productions, and maximizing return on investment. His projects have opened as box office successes, premiered at the world’s leading film festivals-including Cannes, Sundance, Venice, Berlin, and Toronto-and have earned numerous major awards and nominations. Rice’s films have featured many of the industry’s most respected and bankable stars, including: Denzel Washington, Mark Wahlberg, Natalie Portman, Scarlett Johansson, Adam Driver, Miles Teller, Jake Gyllenhaal, Gerard Butler, Robert De Niro, Al Pacino, Charlize Theron, Keanu Reeves, Jason Momoa, Liam Neeson, Amy Adams, Alicia Vikander, Zac Efron, Brendan Fraser, Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Cate Blanchett, Alan Ritchson, Bruce Willis, Jennifer Aniston, Julianne Moore, Rosamund Pike, Russell Crowe, Ethan Hawke, Owen Wilson, Willem Dafoe, Sigourney Weaver, Nicolas Cage, Jude Law, Vince Vaughn, Oscar Issac, Kevin James, Andrew Garfield, and many others. Among his most commercially successful projects is Lone Survivor, starring Mark Wahlberg and directed by Peter Berg, which debuted at number one at the box office and grossed over $125 million domestically. Other notable box office and critically recognized films include 2 Guns, End of Watch, The Watcher, Escape Plan, and Broken City. Rice also produced the acclaimed World War II television film The Courageous Heart of Irena Sendler, starring Academy Award winner Anna Paquin. Based on a true story, the film earned an Emmy Award and a Golden Globe nomination. Jeff’s producing credits also include Marlowe (directed by Neil Jordan), May December, Call Jane, The Card Counter (directed by Paul Schrader), and A Private War, which opened to strong critical acclaim and received two Golden Globe nominations. Additional projects include The Informer, Arkansas, The Kindergarten Teacher (winner of Best Director at Sundance), Under the Silver Lake, and Tesla, based on the life of Nikola Tesla. Rice’s most recent projects include the drama-thriller Paper Tiger, starring Scarlett Johansson, Miles Teller, and Adam Driver, the romantic comedy Solo Mio, starring Kevin James; and the thriller Dead Man’s Wire, directed by Gus Van Sant, By Any Means with Mark Wahlberg, Runner with Alan Ritchson and Owen Wilson, At The Sea with Amy Adams, and Bear Country with Russell Crowe.

Percentiles are each film's standing among all films on MovieCove; the typical film is the median, so one outlier cannot drag it. Percentiles and reviewer scores count the films IMDb credits them on, for now; the Midcredits score bands, the shape of the crowd and the two cards count their MovieCove titles, shows included (a show ranked among shows), appearances as themselves left out. A descriptor is the shape of a title's IMDb rating distribution against the catalog; "most divisive" needs a spread wider than half of all titles, and a card names only a principal credit: a craft role, and on a show a crew role or a run of episodes, never a courtesy credit or a one-off guest spot.
