I just don't want to do a movie because it paid me a lot of money.

First of all, you look at Rocky films now, and if that isn't a cartoon series there isn't any cartoon series. I mean there's no way anybody is going to take that amount of punishment in fifteen rounds.

I still make more money as I do as an actor than director, however I don't want to be a commercial director.

Acting is the easiest money you'll ever make in your life, and directing is probably the hardest money.

And like everybody else, I like the Rocky movies, but if you look at them again you can see all the misses, but the intensity of it, but that wasn't what this is.

I'm trying my hand at writing. I'm writing a couple of projects for HBO, a half hour comedy and a miniseries.
