- Producer Lary Simpson graduated from the University of Oregon and began his career in Hollywood as a studio attorney for Tri-Star pictures. He later moved on to a high-profile entertainment law firm handling film producers, writers, actors and directors. In 1995 Lary left the law firm to co-produce pictures with his brother, Don Simpson, of the legendary Simpson/Bruckheimer team. When Don passed away a year later, Lary formed his own company to carry on the legacy of his brother's creative endeavors and introduce his personal cinematic visions. Lary Simpson Productions is a film production company with a dynamic slate of projects that range from big-budget commercial pictures to smaller, more character driven independents. Established when Simpson/Bruckheimer Films (Flashdance, Top Gun, Beverly Hills Cop, The Rock) reorganized in 1996, LSP continues to be involved on select projects with Jerry Bruckheimer Films such as Enemy of the State in 1998 and the upcoming Bad Company (2002), starring Sir Anthony Hopkins and Chris Rock. Over the past five years, in addition to the Simpson/Bruckheimer pictures, the company has carefully assembled a unique array of projects that are currently in active development. Some of these projects include a witty period piece called Bad Boys of Drury Lane, based on award-winning playwright David Grimm's stage play and JackAJack, an animated musical inspired by a Martin Amis short story. The LSP slate rounds out with Mercy a psychological thriller; a CIA action piece set in Hong Kong; The Theory of Everything, an emotional story involving a fugitive father and the lengths he would go for his young son; ZNA, a reality based biotech thriller; The Girl Next Door, a dark coming of age comedy; Wages of Sin, a summer action movie and Blinded by The Light, a romantic comedy.- IMDb Mini Biography By: LSP Staff
