Parenthood and family come first for me, and when I'm not working I'm cool with the Teletubbies.

The worst piece of advice I've gotten in my whole career is from somebody who said, Remember, it's all about likeability.

I believe that we live in a time of fractured families where maybe fathers aren't getting enough time to see their kids because life's complications and hardships get in the way of those things.

If you are making a script based on a book it can be frustrating going back to the source novel, because you're turning the story into a totally different thing; the narrative of film is different from that of a book.

For some people, an event happens and they are thrown into a tabloid feeding ground.

I'd like to do a film which is funny.

There's certainly a huge element of luck in me ending up where I've ended up.
