As the producer of the three Star Wars prequels - The Phantom Menace, Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith - Rick McCallum has helped bring to the screen some of the most successful independent films of all time.
The global blockbusters are highlights in a career that has seen McCallum produce remarkably eclectic, and always groundbreaking, film and television projects, beginning with the 1981 Depression-era musical Pennies from Heaven for director Herbert Ross and writer Dennis Potter.
McCallum has produced movies with such renowned filmmakers as David Hare (Strapless); Neil Simon (I Ought to Be in Pictures); and Harvey Fierstein, whose HBO film On Tidy Endings received four CableAce Awards. McCallum was also producer of the music video "Undercover" for The Rolling Stones, which MTV named the Best Video of the Decade. Establishing a close working relationship with director Nicolas Roeg, McCallum acted as producer on such films as Castaway and Track 29. (from IMDB) See Less
