I was never a kind of superhero fan much growing up, I'm not a kind of comic book kid.

I don't ever want to go backwards, I quite like it. I like the freedom and I like the - What I set out to do was to make a big action-adventure movie that ticks all the boxes in terms of audience expectations and spectacle, and yet also make a very personal film and it feels like I've gotten away with that, I've managed that.

I like the idea of doing something outside my comfort zone.

There's good art and there's bad art. A lot of action films are bad art, but Paul Greengrass showed us with the Bourne films that it's possible to make an action film with a political, social conscience.

I couldn't be a cameraman or a designer or an actor - I have to be a director because I learned how to do that from my dad.

Modern, not bottom-dwelling literature like a carp.
