In an ideal world, I'd bounce between big projects and no-budget TV dramas with fantastic scripts.

I like to create an atmosphere where actors feel safe enough to take risks.

I love 'The Stand;' I read it when I was a kid - it was one of my favorite books when I was growing up. I love Stephen King; I think he's a remarkable writer.

You never want to be the director who dropped the ball, you know?

I'm a Harry Potter fan.

I love fairytales. I like fantasy a lot, science fiction, I like magic. I like to create magic. I love magic.

It's usually a spiritual thing that's preventing somebody from having happiness.

We are each a gift, exactly as we are in this moment, with no improvements!

When that the poor have cried, Caesar hath wept: Ambition should be made of sterner stuff: Yet Brutus says he was ambitious; And Brutus is an honourable man.
