Founder & Chief Executive Officer
James Wronkowski
“I’ve always believed in the power of stories to take us beyond the familiar while bringing us closer to what makes us human. I founded IMPC to champion those stories and build a lasting home for original ideas, distinctive worlds, and the people who make them possible.”
James Wronkowski is a filmmaker, producer, and entrepreneur whose life and perspective have been shaped by an international upbringing across Hong Kong, the Philippines, and London. Born in Hong Kong and spending his formative years between Hong Kong and the Philippines, he grew up navigating different cultures, environments, and ways of life. Extensive travel further broadened his perspective, cultivating an interest in the stories that connect people across borders and the experiences that shape our understanding of the world.
A graduate of Central Film School in London, where he specialised in producing, James is driven by a desire to create cinema that combines the imagination and scale of extraordinary worlds with the emotional depth of human experience. He is particularly interested in original storytelling that challenges convention, transcends cultural boundaries, and leaves a lasting impression on audiences. His creative philosophy centres on the belief that ambitious cinema can be both artistically distinctive and commercially compelling.
James founded the International Motion Picture Corporation (IMPC) with the ambition of building an independent, internationally minded entertainment company dedicated to the development and production of original films, the creation and ownership of intellectual property, and the cultivation of stories with the potential to extend beyond the screen. His vision is to build a company where creative ambition and entrepreneurial thinking work in tandem, allowing original ideas to develop into enduring works, distinctive cinematic worlds, and intellectual properties with long-term cultural and commercial value.
Drawing on a perspective shaped by Asia and the United Kingdom, James seeks to establish IMPC as an internationally recognised entertainment company with a distinctive creative identity and a commitment to original storytelling. By bringing together filmmakers, creative talent, and entrepreneurial minds, he aims to develop bold, memorable works that connect with audiences across cultures and generations, building a lasting legacy of stories and cinematic worlds that endure beyond the screen.
