Once you get an offer from Steven Soderbergh, you just do anything you can to make it fit.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Soderbergh is a very respectable director that manages to have an incredible amount of freedom in a system that doesn't allow anybody to be free as he is on a set. And he will jump from 'Solaris' to 'Ocean's Twelve' and 'Thirteen.'
He's Soderbergh, we're working for him. It doesn't matter what he's doing; we'll see it at the premiere.
If you are going to be a great investor, you have to fit the style to who you are.
Steven and I have worked together a lot and I'm far ahead of the curve than most people in knowing what he wants, but he knows far more than I know about what's important for the story. So, most of the changes he will make will involve story changes.
I really want to work with Hugh Jackman and also Steven Spielberg.
By the time May rolls around, I'm probably going to want to spend a month on an island. But if Steven Spielberg or Steven Soderbergh or any number of directors were to say 'Hey, there's this role, are you interested?' I'd be there in a flash.
Steven Spielberg and I have tremendous amounts of money.
You know that you're part of a Spielberg production when you've got some aliens involved, but you really know when you're sitting there at a table read, and they say, 'Steven really wanted it this way.'
Neal had a couple of good ideas and they fit nicely, so that's the way I decided to go.
The influence of Steven Spielberg to my career is unquantifiable. Every day on the set with him is a master class in filmmaking.
