| Quotes: |
I can't script my career better than what it is.
<br />
<hr>
I don't say that I have a job. I have a gig, or a piece, or a film, or a show, but it's never a job.
<br />
<hr>
I've worked with Terrence Malick, Werner Herzog, Olive Stone and David Gordon Green, and Damien Chazelle on 'First Man.' When you have someone at the helm like that, they're gonna make something great.
<br />
<hr>
I tell people that I've had a chance to work Sam Esmail, Damien Chazelle and Cary Fukunaga, and those guys are working on a different level.
<br />
<hr>
I guess the ultimate thing is that you want to keep working, you know, with the best. |
