Obviously I'd love to work with any of these great directors because every time I've worked with them I've gained a tremendous amount as an actor. Each director has his own way of pushing you towards improving yourself. ↗

The stories that I want to tell, especially as a director, don't necessarily have a perfect ending because, the older you get, the more you appreciate a good day versus a happy ending. You understand that life continues on the next day; the reality of things is what happens tomorrow. ↗

A lot of directors don't want the pressure of a movie the size of Pearl Harbor. But I love it. I thrive on it. ↗

Do you know what directors go through? It's just hell. Like, why do I work so hard - to think I'm only going to see this movie five times and then never see it again 'cause I'm so sick of it? What is it worth, honestly? ↗

The acting is something that will always be a part of my life, but the writing gives me a lot more creative freedom. You're a pawn in somebody else's chess game, whereas as a writer and as a director, you get to call the shots. And that's very thrilling. ↗

On stage, the audience watches from a fixed viewpoint and the director cannot retake something he doesn't like. It has to work straight through. ↗

The National Intelligence Director needs the authority to do the job we are asking him to do. That means power over the intelligence budget. And to be effective, to be allowed to do his or her job, they must have authority over the budget. ↗

I do my best to hold the director's opinion above my own. ↗

I've had really great experiences working with first-time directors. They come at filmmaking with fresh ideas. I've been very lucky that way. ↗
