Not every actor is a Tom Cruise. They are not all used to doing big action movies and doing sliding bikes and cars and fights. So you've got to take actors who have maybe not done that kind of stuff and get them through some proper training first.

The more we can put the camera in a better place, the more we can take the audience on a more extreme journey with that character.

I'd most likely be a helicopter pilot, or I'd own a really cool surf hotel somewhere on a beach.

The last thing you want is an injured actor. That, or having to use a stuntman too much.

The worst thing that can happen is when you have gone weeks and months into elaborate sequences and the storyline of the film changes and you find out they don't need it. Sometimes you don't shoot those sequences, or they have been shot and then get edited out of the sequence you've shot gets changed and needs to be redone. That can be hard. It's not heartbreaking, but you do tend to think, "Och, all that work and effort." But that's filming, you know? You put all of these modular things into the pot, and sometimes they don't all get used.

I strive to be professional and to push myself always to do a better job.

If a movie makes money, then it's a success.
