My own personal process with movies is to develop the characters with the actors and, when I've done that properly, you can't imagine anyone else, but that actor, playing that part.

I can't impress people with the pedigree of obscure French filmmakers that got me into film. It was Robert Zemeckis and Steven Spielberg. I really thought I wanted to make dumb action movies.

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

There are actors who just bring an enormous amount of empathy. They just have that"it" that makes you want to follow them and root for them.

At the end of the day, I like the spy genre, as opposed to the action movie genre, because spies are smart. The successful spies are the smarter spies.

At the end of the day, it's still a show about guys who ride extremely fast motorcycles for a living.

It's better to find a stunt person who can act. It's easier to do that than to find an actor who can do a stunt.
