Ridley Scott is a cinematic master and a great man. It was a real honour working with him on 'Prometheus.'
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I was so excited to work with Ridley Scott. Who wouldn't be?
Ridley Scott's 'Prometheus' is a magnificent science-fiction film, all the more intriguing because it raises questions about the origin of human life and doesn't have the answers.
All I can say is working with Ridley Scott is a dream come true.
I was speaking to Ridley Scott the other day and he makes a film every 18 months. He's amazing really.
Doing 'Prometheus' was what you imagine being an actor is like when you're five. In a spacesuit, on another planet, getting killed by an alien. It was a real treat; it felt like being a part of movie history.
Getting the call from Ridley Scott made me think that sometimes you just need to go to work.
Working with Ridley is working with one of the great filmmakers and one of the great raconteurs. You know, it's like, a dinner with Ridley Scott or a dinner with Martin Scorsese? You just want to cut your arm off to get those.
'Prometheus' was a great experience for me.
When I'm actually making a film and trying to find solutions, I like to watch making-of documentaries about huge films, like 'Gladiator.' That couldn't be more apart from what I'm doing, but you see Ridley Scott facing huge problems and fixing them.
As a young actor, I found myself in all these movies at once, with two big trilogies and a Cameron Crowe film and working with Ridley Scott a couple of times.
