If I'm not in love with the script, there's nothing. It doesn't matter what you give me. It has to start with the script.

I'm very interested in politics, and I feel TV is a more political medium than film.

Obviously, anyone who has seen Mr. and Mrs. Smith knows that husband and wife married spies is something that I find particularly interesting.

In particular, I'm drawn to the stories that have big, high concepts and real characters at their heart. And I love where those two worlds meet, and 'Edge of Tomorrow' is the perfect canvas to explore that.

It's hard to get a movie made about characters these days. We're in a climate where, unless it's based on a toy or it's a superhero where somewhere it ends in man - like Spider-Man, Superman or Iron Man - it's hard to get it made.

I make movies for me and posterity. I'm more scared of history than I am of the studio.
