I think I have been stereotyped as an action director in Hollywood, so all I got were the action scripts.

John Woo

I'm terrible at reading scripts. I love to read, and I hate reading scripts.

Angelina Jolie

I was reading scripts, doing coverage, for CAA. Reading hundreds and hundreds of scripts across the board, from blind submissions to 'Brokeback Mountain'. It was not always a pleasant task but something, in hindsight, I'm glad I did.

D. B. Weiss

Underlying this mission impossible was the wishful supposition that an America that knew everything could prevent anything.

I'm impressed with Ed Sheeran. I think he has a terrific point of view and a great mentality but I sense there is someone in the background saying to him, 'We need more love songs, Ed.'

Leo Sayer

I'm not saying no to anything, at least as far as reading scripts. I don't care if it's television or films but, personally, I would say I'd like to establish myself more in film.
