It's always once the script's done in the first two years if it doesn't get going somehow or another, I've never had an old script that someone's made later on.

It's always once the script's done in the first two years if it doesn't get going somehow or another, I've never had an old script that someone's made later on.

I worked as hard to write the worst film of the year as I did to write the best film of the year.

Because I've been at it so long and very steadily, I have a lot of credits, but I probably have twice as many scripts that were never made for whatever reason.

Its such an egotistical thing to be able to just stand there and say, Action! Its like being a little mini-god.

I know a lot of directors have a whole staff of people trying to find their next film for them. I always just end up writing mine.

I think there's something strange about writing a script I've written many, many scripts - dozens and dozens of scripts - and every time I start one, I think to myself: 'why in the world do I think I know how to do this?'
