I didn't grow up like Quentin Tarantino, watching esoteric art films at the video store. I'd go to the multiplex and see big, mainstream movies, and I'd go, 'I want to make one of those one day.'
I'm really attracted to anti-heroes, and I'm a little bit of a troublemaker myself, and a little bit of a rule-breaker, and I like spies.
I was a troublemaker. For a long time, I didn't fit in.
When you have films like 'Bourne' that succeed, not only does it beget sequels, but it begets people taking chances.
I have a rebellious nature, and being told no is almost the surest way to get me to do something.
I think that I learned a studio system prefers a sort of professionalism from the director.
