I'm not interested in more money for the sake of it. You're aware that if you're nicking all the budget, somebody else is getting threepence ha'penny, or the production values aren't going to be so high.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Personally, I'm not interested in getting more money for what I do; I'm just interested in more money being put into the production.

It's insane to try to balance the budget.
My budget is similar to the Penny Plan, which cuts 1 percent a year for five or six years and balances the budget.
It's clearly a budget. It's got a lot of numbers in it.
The high-grossing films are not all that interesting to me, I have to say. It's not stuff I would want to be in. Yes, you would want the big paycheck, but that's never really been my concern.
I have never cared enough about money to worry about spending it, and have been fortunate to make enough to be spoiled rotten.
As a producer or financier, you are going to go where you get the best bang for your buck.
I know I'm in the exceptional position of having money, but I didn't have it for many decades. I'm always trying to get shows put on for 25 per cent less production costs.
I don't think you can discriminate against budgets, you know? I'm an actor, I guess, so I'm just trying to play as many characters as I can. If there's a character I think I can play, and they're going to let me do it, I'll do it whether it's $10 or $1 million or more.
