You find with the really great actors, the ones you really admire and look up to, very often they're very giving, generous, warm people.

I've been fortunate to work with several actors and directors who I look up to, and learned from each of them.

There are many actors I really like and whose work I admire.

I'm fortunate enough to have had an opportunity to do a range of stuff, and the thing I admire most in actors is versatility, those that morph and change, those kind of chameleon actors who are unrecognisable from one job to another. That's something that I aspire to establish myself.

One of the things I love about directing is I love actors, because no matter how complex they are, once you get down to working and talking to them and the toughest guy will want you to open them up and he wants to show you stuff he was afraid to show anybody before.

I think actors do make really, really wonderful directors.

I've worked with actors who were very helpful and a lot better than I was.

Working with big actors and realising that they were just normal people who've got an incredible talent was just a great experience.

I love working with great actors.
