I think every actor worth his or her salt wants to do good, meaningful cinema.
I would never do something like Speed 2 again. If I'd wanted to make those kind of movies I could have signed up for five of them while it was in the can. It wasn't worth it to me. That was just an innocuous, boring movie.
At the end of the day it's got to be a good movie, it's got to be a funny movie, and it's got to make people think, 'Hey, I couldn't have spent my time any better.'
As far as I know, if you take your time, write a good script and make a good film, then give the audience time, they will accept it.
It's just lovely to be involved in a movie that does go back to the basics - characters and great writing.
A truly good movie is enjoyable too. There’s nothing complicated about it.
I didn't know if I could make a good movie. But I knew I could make a respectful one.
If the movie's well made and it's about things that count, people will ultimately see the depth in it.
It's always nice to have another filmmaker to reassure you that you are making a good quality film.
I'm interested not just in projects that I'll be starring in, but producing film and TV that's really quality and great for adults; and when I say 'great for adults,' it doesn't mean without humor, because I'm also interested in doing comedy.
