Saigon is hot, full of atmosphere, activity, and commerce.

Ian McKellen is brilliant with research. I paid really close attention to the sources he goes to. He's a very, very intelligent man.

I remember thinking, I want to work for the camera.

Horrible things happen, but were they horrible? No, they were just circumstances of the world.

When you throw punches at actors, you stop, you pull it, and it looks like you pulled it. When you throw punches at cartoon characters, they are not there, so you can swing through. It looks like you really decked them.

I've been grateful enough, smart enough to take the work with Ian McKellen in Gods And Monsters.

I think you have to show homage to creators.
