I think it's disrespectful to go onto a set without some clear idea of what your intentions are, because then you're hanging the director out to dry.

My process is very disempowering to the director anyway, so it's essential that you be respectful. Once we've sort of found the scene, I have to get out of there, because you don't want to split the actor's idea of who's in charge.

I think there is a danger when it comes to fake news because there is some fake news out there, but there's also a danger when you only hear back to you the beliefs you already have.

I'm becoming a frustrated director, I think, in an actor's body.

I think we're all good and bad, but good's not funny. Bad is funny. Suppress the good and let the bad out, and then you can be funny.

I think a good director is a good listener.
