Roland Emmerich
Roland Emmerich (; born November 10, 1955) is a German film director, screenwriter, and producer. His films, most of which are English-language Hollywood productions, have made more than $3 billion worldwide, including just over $1 billion in the United States, making him the country's 14th-highest grossing director of all time. He began his work in the film industry by directing the film ''The Noah's Ark Principle'' (1984) as part of his university thesis and also co-founded Centropolis Entertainment in 1985 with his sister. He is a collector of art and an active campaigner for the LGBT community, and is openly gay. He is also a campaigner for awareness of global warming and equal rights.
==Early life and career==
Emmerich was born in Stuttgart, West Germany, and grew up in the nearby town of Sindelfingen. As a youth, he traveled extensively throughout Europe and North America on vacations financed by his father, Hans, the wealthy founder of a garden machinery production company. In 1977, he began attending University of Television and Film Munich with the intention of studying to become a production designer.〔〔 After watching ''Star Wars'', he instead decided to enroll in the school's film director program.〔〔''The Force Is With Them: The Legacy of Star Wars'' Star Wars Original Trilogy DVD Box Set: Bonus Materials, ()〕 Required to create a short film as his final thesis in 1981, he wrote and directed the full-length feature ''The Noah's Ark Principle'', which was screened as the opening film of the 34th Berlin International Film Festival in 1984.
In 1985, he founded Centropolis Film Productions (now Centropolis Entertainment) in partnership with his sister, producer Ute Emmerich, and directed his major film debut, a fantasy feature named ''Joey''.〔 He subsequently directed the 1987 comedy ''Hollywood-Monster'' and the 1990 science-fiction film ''Moon 44''. Theatrically, these were only released in and nearby his native country, although Emmerich filmed them in English and went against conventional German styles in an attempt to appeal to a larger market.〔〔 This subsequently resulted in ''Moon 44'' being released direct-to-video in the U.S. in early 1991. ''Joey'' and ''Hollywood-Monster'' eventually also saw home video releases in the U.S. (as ''Making Contact'' and ''Ghost Chase'', respectively) once Emmerich achieved more prominence in America.
