'Knowing' is one of those movies where you're going to get the spectacle, and you're going to have the entertainment in the grand science fiction tradition. But also, it will perhaps stimulate some discussion to help you sort out on your own where you might choose to go in terms of your own needs. Now, I say that without preaching.

I came out of independent film, that's my roots.

When you're playing supernatural characters, there's an infinite number of possibilities with a character. And I also think they're wonderful and entertaining for the whole family. You don't have a high body count.

The biggest problem for me was feeling that as I became more balanced and a better man that I wouldn't have the fire to create from.

I love working with younger actors because they always come into the game full of energy and ideas that challenge me and keep me learning and stimulated.

I just try to keep it fresh. I try to keep it interesting. The truth is my roots are independently spirited dramas that are small, and I will always go back to that well, because that's where I broke out of. But I'm going to keep doing as many different movies as I possibly can.

My definition of a father is someone who empowers their children.
