I've done a few studio films in the last few years where I feel like I've done good work, and then I only end up in two scenes. That's been very disappointing.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Most of the films I've done haven't done particularly well. I'm surprised I'm continuing to work.
When I go to where I was getting excellent parts in movies I may have taken a few too soon, too anxious to go back to work and to anxious to make another film and to succeed more.
In truth, making films doesn't feel like hard work because I always have such a good time doing it.
I haven't seen about half the movies I've done. You know, you've got to make a living, but some I don't get a good vibe with.
When my films don't do well, I'm hurt and surprised. It's discouraging.
I've been lucky enough to work with some great directors, and I don't want to throw that away by doing one big horrible big budget film.
The effort always remains that my new film outdoes my last in terms of performance and gets better box office success. Box office is the sole reason why I do films.
Because I've done so many different roles, I don't want to repeat myself. It's getting harder and harder to find something interesting. You never know - I might never make a film again.
Well, I just think through your career you go through different phases, and I just got sort of uninspired by the whole studio process of making and releasing films.
My film directorial career has been nothing but repetition of one failure after another!
