Moshe Diamant boasts a remarkable and extensive career with over 70 producer credits to his name. His journey began in the late 1970s when he initially trained as an engineer, acquiring the expertise to pioneer a groundbreaking subtitling process for video that swiftly garnered the attention of Hollywood. However, his passion for the production side of the industry soon took center stage.

Diamant embarked on a significant partnership in the realm of production by co-founding Trans World Entertainment, a prominent production house that thrived from 1983 to 1993. During this pivotal period, he honed a specialization in crafting low-budget action films, frequently featuring martial arts luminaries like Shô Kosugi, who took the lead in one of Diamant’s notable creations, “Pray for Death” (1985). It was only a matter of time before Diamant’s path crossed with Belgian action maestro Jean-Claude Van Damme, and he went on to produce multiple movies alongside the iconic actor. These collaborations encompassed diverse ventures, including the globe-trotting thriller “Double Impact” (1991), where Van Damme portrayed twins, and the enthralling science-fiction-infused action flick “Timecop” (1994).

Following the conclusion of Trans World Entertainment, Diamant embarked on a journey of diversification, both in terms of genres and budgets. His repertoire expanded to include projects such as the e-horror offering “Feardotcom” (2002) and the 2006 Brian De Palma-directed period mystery biopic, “The Black Dahlia” (2006). In the same year, he produced “Tristan + Isolde” (2006), starring James Franco.

Notably, Diamant has continued to make a significant impact on the cinematic landscape with his more recent productions. These include the high-octane heist film “The Hurricane Heist” (2018), a $37 million spectacle directed by Rob Cohen and featuring a star-studded ensemble including Toby Kebbell, Maggie Grace, and Ryan Kwanten. His portfolio also boasts “Protege” (2020), a gripping thriller directed by Martin Campbell and headlined by acclaimed actors Michael Keaton and Samuel L. Jackson. Diamant’s most recent endeavors include “Memory” (2022), directed by Martin Campbell and starring the formidable duo of Liam Neeson and Guy Pearce. Currently, he is in post-production on “Dirty Angels”, also directed by Martin Campbell and featuring the talented Eva Green, marking yet another exciting chapter in his illustrious career.
