Our philosophy is to give audiences what they want. We make world-class films using the very best talent and facilities the UK and Europe have to offer. We make films people want to see, bringing great stories to life. We believe in independence. In an industry overshadowed by billion-dollar behemoths, we offer a counterpoint of true independence, authenticity and craftsmanship. In the emerging post-coronavirus world, there is a genuine, significant gap in the market for high volumes of good-value entertainment which can be produced and delivered expertly and expediently. Fire In The Hole Productions can deliver this and is well placed to carry it on to a higher level. And we’re just getting started! The Fire In The Hole Productions slate is crammed with high quality content as we expand our operation beyond the UK. We’re going to shake things up: welcome to the revolution.

We are passionate about filmmaking and enjoy bringing the pages of history to life. Fire In The Hole Productions was founded by Rick Roberts in 1997. Rick started making and directing short films in 1992 as a hobby as he fell in love with cinema at an early age. As Rick's experience grew, he was able to get involved with larger scale projects which enabled him to begin investing in his own independent films such as See It Through, From This Day, Dark Country and Seventh Soldier. Rick has experience in writing, producing and providing expert military costume advice but his main passion will always be for his role as a director. Fire In The Hole Productions has worked in a variety of production roles to help develop projects for HBO, BBC, CBS as well as several of its own independent features and film shorts. Many of these independent films have showcased at festivals all over the world and have been broadcast on televison networks such as SKY. Fuelled by a childhood love for movies and a keen interest in both British and American history, Fire In The Hole Productions always brings a professional and multifaceted skillset to every project. Additionally, Fire In The Hole Productions is a costume and prop supplier with a large collection of authentic period costumes, props and set pieces available for hire. With a vast knowledge of military and western history, the company also offers techinical advice on war-themed, historical and western-based projects, ensuring that maximum historical accuracy and authenticity are met in every aspect of production.
