I'm one of the few directors that actually shoots a lot in camera.

Im at that point in my life where I definitely want to get married soon. Ive got my dogs as surrogates, but Im ready for kids.

I'm done with effects movies for now. When you do a movie like 'Transformers,' it can feel like you're doing three movies at once - which is tiring.

Do you know what directors go through? It's just hell. Like, why do I work so hard - to think I'm only going to see this movie five times and then never see it again 'cause I'm so sick of it? What is it worth, honestly?

I allow a lot of room for improvisation and funny stuff. I always feel planned.

Directing is not a job. It's more like a career. Which is great!

What I look for in a script is something that challenges me, something that breaks new ground, something that allows me to flex my director muscle. You have got to think fast in this business, youve got to keep reinventing yourself to stay on top.
