I would love to work with Tim Burton. I think we would be very good together.

I really want to work with Tim Burton and Johnny Depp.

I absolutely loved working with Tim Burton because he is just a creative, outside of the box thinker. How he does things is fantastic. It is different - weird different - and he does things that are groundbreaking. They are courageous to do and once you do them you are like, 'Wow! That really does work!'

I had admired Richard Burton for years and years before I had ever worked with him. He was a great, great actor. It was a joy to get to know him as a person.

These last few years, working with Tim Burton, it's been the best time I've ever had.

I've worked with Tim Burton five times, and it's just like being part of a family; life doesn't get much better than that.

The person that made me want to make movies, and the reason I do films, is Bruce Lee. He was an incredible actor, and he had a lot of charisma. Handsome, action, you know, everything was there. I loved Bruce Lee.

Sean Penn, for his acting as well as his writing and directing. There are so many actors I respect, but his reach is so wide.

For me, one of my favorites, director-wise, is Tim Burton. I also really admire the work of actors like Sean Penn. He is probably my favorite actor because of his dedication and commitment to roles, and the ability to morph and change himself when he needs to. It's about dedication and commitment and a passion.
