I'm glad to be an actor to be employed by people who are now 12, probably. I look forward to that.

One of the big takeaways from that experience [in Blue Jasmin] was just what a thrill it was to act with somebody like Cate Blanchett operating on that caliber. Because what she was doing was very powerful. T

I did my first film with Francis Ford Copploa which spoiled the hell out of me.

I really feel lucky that I still feel excited about the actual work that I get to do. I just happen to love it, and I could easily see, for somebody else, that not being the case.

I remember pretending to be the characters in the movies when I was a little kid.

Each time demands its own kind of film.

[ Being director] is really reassuring to me that it's just about who is right for that role and less about if you ace the audition. It's just about getting to know people, not about who's a better actor a lot of the time. It's about who fits that particular suit, you know?
