Paul W. S. Anderson Movies List (Filmography)

Paul William Scott Anderson (born 4 March 1965) is an English film director, screenwriter, and producer who often makes science fiction films and adaptations of video games.

Anderson made his feature film debut with the British independent film Shopping (1994); he found commercial success with his second film, Mortal Kombat (1995), made in the US, based on the first couple of video games of the same name by Midway Games. He is best known as the creative voice behind the first six live-action films of the Resident Evil film series (2002–2016), which stars Milla Jovovich (whom he married in 2009), and is based on the Capcom video game series of the same name. The series' first six live-action films, of which Anderson directed four, have collectively grossed over $1 billion worldwide. Other notable films of Anderson's are Event Horizon (1997), an initial critical and commercial disappointment that found renewed appreciation on home media; Alien vs. Predator (2004), based on the crossover concept of the same name between the Alien and Predator franchises; Death Race (2008), a remake/prequel to 1975's Death Race 2000, and the epic romantic historical disaster Pompeii (2014).

Anderson and producer Jeremy Bolt founded Impact Pictures in 1992, under which most of Anderson's films have been made.
