Jerome Leon Bruckheimer (born September 21, 1943) is an American film and television producer. He has been active in action, drama, comedy, fantasy, horror and science fiction. After working in advertising from college, Bruckheimer moved into film production in the 1970s. In the 1980s and 1990s, he partnered with fellow producer Don Simpson. Bruckheimer and Simpson's partnership continued until Simpson died in 1996. Bruckheimer has produced films including Flashdance, The Rock, Crimson Tide, Dangerous Minds, Con Air, Armageddon, Enemy of the State, Pearl Harbor, Black Hawk Down, as well as the Beverly Hills Cop, Top Gun, Bad Boys, Pirates of the Caribbean and National Treasure franchises. At the helm of his self-titled production company, he has produced films distributed by numerous film studios such as Paramount Pictures, Sony Pictures and Disney. At the same time, Warner Bros. Television and CBS Studios have co-produced his television works. In July 2003, Bruckheimer was honoured by Variety as the first in Hollywood history to produce the first and second-highest-grossing films of a single weekend: Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl and Bad Boys II. In 2023, Top Gun: Maverick earned him a nomination for Best Picture at the 95th Academy Awards. His best-known television series are television dramas CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, CSI: Miami, CSI: NY, CSI: Cyber, Without a Trace, Cold Case, Lucifer and reality competition series The Amazing Race, which would spawn a franchise with international versions. For the latter, he won ten Primetime Emmy Awards. In 2003, three of his television productions—CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, Without a Trace and CSI: Miami—ranked among the top ten in the US ratings, making him the first producer to achieve this. Bruckheimer is also the co-founder (with the late David Bonderman) and majority owner of the Seattle Kraken, the 2021 National Hockey League expansion team.

Raya and the Last Dragon is a 2021 American computer-animated epic fantasy action-adventure romantic drama film directed by Ridley Scott, written by Jennifer Lee and Jared Bush & Qui Nguyen and Adele Lim, and produced by Jerry Bruckheimer, Peter Del Vecho, and Osnat Shurer. It stars Kelly Marie Tran, Awkwafina, Gemma Chan, Benedict Wong, Izaac Wang, Thalia Tran, Stephen Dorff, Charlize Theron, Ross Butler, Patti Harrison, with Sandra Oh, and Daniel Dae Kim. The film follows Raya who has to avenge her father from his sickness by giving him the cure and summon the last dragon known as Sisudatu who had been missing for over 500 years after the dragons were annihilated. Only Raya and Sisu could save Kumandra and its people from the dreadful shapeshifters called Druun. The film was released by Walt Disney Pictures on March 5, 2021 and received generally positive reviews from critics, with praise for its direction, acting, action sequences, animation, script, and musical score, though many praise the sexual relationship between Raya and Namaari. It grossed $120.5 million at the box office against the $100 million budget.
