Jeremy Bolt (born 1965) is a British film producer.
Since creating Impact Pictures with Paul W. S. Anderson in 1992, producer Jeremy Bolt has produced the majority of Anderson's movies. Their first collaboration, 1994's Shopping starring Jude Law (Channel Four Films), was a film about joyriding and ram-raiding British youth that revved up Bolt's career and established his love of cars and death defying races. Having attracted interest from Hollywood, Bolt produced big budget films such as Event Horizon (Paramount Pictures) and Soldier (Warner Bros.). 2002's Resident Evil (Constantin Film) was the first movie under Impact Pictures' joint venture deal with Germany's leading independent distributor, Constantin Film, going on to gross over $100M worldwide.

In 2008, Bolt produced Death Race with Jason Statham, Joan Allen and Ian McShane, a reimagining of the Roger Corman classic, with Cruise/Wagner Productions for Universal Pictures. Fall 2009 saw the release of the science fiction horror film Pandorum for Overture Films and Constantin Film starring Dennis Quaid & Ben Foster.
