Scott Free Productions is a British-American independent film and television production company founded in 1970 by filmmakers and brothers Ridley Scott and Tony Scott. They formed the feature film development company Percy Main Productions in 1980,[1] naming the company after the English village Percy Main, where their father grew up.[2] The company was renamed Scott Free Productions in 1995.[2] Scott Free has produced films ranging from the 2000 Hollywood blockbuster Gladiator (2000) to "smaller pictures" like Cracks (2009).[2] Between the productions of White Squall (1996) and G.I. Jane (1997), Ridley Scott reorganised the company.[3]
