OFFICIAL STATEMENT
It is with deep sadness that Ultrafilms announces the death of founder David Lightfoot, who passed away in hospital on Sunday 13th June 2021 after heart issues. David was a loving father and survived by his son Joshua.With well over 30 years in the industry, and over 80 long form credits, award-winning Australian film producer David Lightfoot was one of the most experienced and widely regarded production executives in the country. After playing Sheffield Shield cricket for South Australia and a stint in the army as part of the Cambodian peace keeping forces, David started his film career at the South Australian Film Corporation in 1982 and worked on Australian classics like “Babe”, “Bad Boy Bubby”, “The Sound of One Hand Clapping”, “Japanese Story” and more.
David produced the highly successful 2005 horror/thriller “Wolf Creek” which premiered at Sundance World Cinema and Cannes Directors David Fortnight (2005) and earned over 7 times its budget in sales; the Weinstein Company’s $30M action/thriller “Rogue” (2007), written and directed by Greg McLean; Rupert Glasson’s thriller “Coffin Rock” (2009).
Most recently, David produced with Tony Ginnane ‘Never Too Late’, (currently screening on Foxtel) featuring Jack Thomson, Jacki Weaver, Shane Jacobson, James Cromwell of ‘Babe’ and iconic British television star, Dennis Waterman of ‘The Sweeney’ and ‘Minder’ fame.
