We love bringing verisimilitude to audiences, hopefully having experiences you'll never have.

I created my own concept art and went in and did a 90-minute presentation that cost me a lot of money.And, the great thing is though, when I got the job, they had to buy all of it from me, because one of the set pieces in the middle of the movie was the scene I wrote, and they needed to own everything because a lot of it ended up being the movie we made, so I got all my money back. I was committed. I was going to outspend every competing director.

I do think there are always ways to create what seem like insurmountable powers, but then suddenly you find their limitations and that's the nature of comic book storytelling - always has been.

At the end of the day, a "jump scare" scares the audience for the moment. Slow burn horror ideas scare people forever.

I root for all movies, but I especially root for good comic book movies. It's the best, most interesting genre going right now.

I don't want to be a mind rapist!

That's to me what always is compelling about villains. I am much more interested in how they think than in what they even do.
