I never turn down scripts without good reason. If I did, I would probably never work.

I don't work very much, and I just sit here waiting for a script that I can't refuse - and I'm not talking about money.

Writing scripts is a laborious job that can be a real pain.

My job is really to... everyone is reading the script, and my job is to make sure we all interpret it in as much the same way as possible. And then I give them the freedom to sort of - to get their performance across and then make suggestions where things are not working and accentuate and push things where they really are working.

It's difficult when you have to turn down a tremendous amount of money because you don't like what the script is saying and you don't have any money.

When you have a good script you're almost in more trouble than when you have a terrible script.

I'm the only one responsible for the choices I make and the opportunities I get. When you read the script, you don't know how it's going to shape up. You just know what you've been narrated.

I think you judge your career by the scripts that are being sent your way.

My own mentality is that I've retired. They send me these scripts and if I absolutely have to do it, then I go to work.
