I would like to hook up with one of the great Japanese filmmakers, like the master that made Ringu, and I would like to take 'The Wicker Man' to Japan, except this time he's a ghost.

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.

Celebrity is a word I take great umbrage with. I'm actively anti-celebrity.

I just want to keep making movies that hopefully makes some kids smile.

I wanted to make an image for myself as an outlaw type. A kind of rock 'n' roll sensibility.

I happen to still like really dark, dramatic, fractured characters. They're the reason I got into movies.

I don't want you to think that I'm up late reading a stack of Spider-Man comics and eating a tray of lemon cookies while sucking my thumb. I'm not doing that. But I am loyal to the influences of my childhood.
