I'm interested in doing movies I wouldn't normally be interested in doing.

I've been directing more and more the last few years, I find it an enjoyable challenge.

I've been pretty lucky - or slothful - in that I've never been a "career builder," I take the jobs that come along that feel right, and that's left me fairly open to all genres, really. But with "Caprica," the complex, dark and very smart script was the draw.

Look, I'm an actor, I don't profess to understand much of anything

I consider myself a very lucky man indeed.

Before I start directing a show, I try to spend a few weeks hanging around the set, getting to know the crew and talking to the actors about how they like to work. Who is fussy? Who is left-handed? Who wants to go home early, and who is the perfectionist?

On the other hand, I would've been exceedingly rich, which would've been wonderful!
