Films like Harry Potter and Narnia, I'm sure they'll do another one. The biggest audience of course is the youngsters.

But Gladiator is one of my favourite adventures because I really loved going into the world. I loved creating the world to the degree where you could almost smell it.

I like my wine and vodka, but that doesn't mean I fall about drunk. I know my limits.

I get so used to working with writers that my prime occupation is development.

The time it would take me to write a screenplay it would take me the time to make two films. I would rather make the movies and I'm a better moviemaker than I a would be writer.

I'm very competitive. I just go with what engages or fascinates me in my work and that's it. I have no definition; I just love to do it.

Some people like to do everything always the same thing. That's another way: To do the same thing.
