I love working with the right actor, and if the right actor happens to be unknown, that should be allowed, too, I think.

I'd love to do a movie where the monster is human, where the issue is not otherworldly, or horror or science fiction.

I guess the idea of not wanting to choose to direct a film, for which I've not read a script. It's a tough decision to make without seeing any pages. That's not to say that I don't have all the faith in the world in the spectacular writers.

I sort of love the idea of, you know, watching something and then having to wait for the next episode.

I may be even more grateful to George Lucas now than I was as a kid.

We went on the opening weekend [of Star Wars], a group of us went out and just popped into a couple theaters just to see people in the theater watching the movie, and it was incredibly gratifying just to see the thing out there being watched by people. And the reaction was more than we could've expected.

I try to work on shows that I would want to watch.
