Sir John Woolf (15 March 1913, London – 28 June 1999, London) and his brother James Woolf (2 March 1920, London – 30 May 1966) were British film producers. John and James founded the production companies Romulus Films and Remus Films, which were active during the 1950s and 1960s,〔Tom Vallance ("Obituary: Sir John Woolf" ), ''The Independent'', 1 July 1999〕 and the distribution company Independent Film Distributors (known as IFD), which was active 1950–59 and handled the UK distribution of films such as ''The African Queen'' and ''Gift Horse'', as well as several films made by their two production companies (such as ''Room at the Top'').
