The thriller genre in general, it's total foreign ground for me.

[It is nice] to explore someone's will to survive, the ferocity of loyalty, how far you would go to protect the ones you love... I believe women have more power than we give ourselves credit for... We have been known to lift cars off of babies! That's incredible.

I'd like to make mistakes on my own dime, and not have a herd of people tell me what I'm doing wrong. and I'm also still trying to find and develop my voice as a filmmaker, and I think that's easier to do on your own terms, than trying to satisfy a bunch of people that are paying for the movie. That being said, I'm certainly open to moving into that world.

The story of survival is a nice metaphor for our experience making this movie, finding your inner strength and powering through and getting to the endpoint alive.

I think a lot of times, when you're working in this business, and you're both actors or somehow involved in the industry, you can get torn in different directions and be on completely opposite schedules.

I love the studio system. Love that studio system and all their money. They're great; I think they're fabulous . You know, what it is right now is I feel like I'm still learning as a filmmaker, I'm still starting out.

I'm kinda doing a lot of stuff.
