The ultimate thing is creating your own stuff and making projects for yourself. That's what Seth Rogen does. He's writing and producing a lot of the movies that he's the lead in.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
As far as behind the scenes, I absolutely want to get into making my own films and producing my own things.
I love to be creative and to put flesh onto the ideas that are inside of me. And there are not that many great programs that are coming out through Hollywood, and I'm tired of waiting around for someone to hand me a good script, so I'm going to go and produce something.
I've always considered myself a filmmaker who writes stuff for himself to do.
For me as a filmmaker, I do the projects I'm really excited about.
Ultimately, making movies, if you don't have a big star, it's hard to do. Or if it's not a star director.
When I started making films, like almost every filmmaker, I think, you're just so excited to be able to make a movie that you'll do anything.
I love making films, and as long as I love the subject, I just have a crazy amount of passion and energy for the project.
When there wasn't a lot of work, I wrote a screenplay, 'What Lies Beneath,' which got noticed and got me more acting jobs. As I got more jobs, I was able to make my own films. That ethos of making my own work has provided me with a lot of opportunities.
I just want to work with good filmmakers and do good projects that mean something to me and play interesting characters. That's really it.
What's great about making movies is the sort of additive process of bringing people together and having an idea and watching the idea be added to and at the end you have this thing.
