When you look at someone like Sacha Baron Cohen, you have to really respect the boundaries he is pushing as Bruno or Borat.
Me and Kirby are very collaborative and it changes from film to film. The first project we worked on together, Derrida, we co-directed. The last film Outrage, I was the producer and he was the director. This film was much more of a collaboration - he is the director and I am the producer - but this is a film by both of us.
The point of the first one was that it was about guys being lured by sex and the stereotypes... I always say it's like a horror version of Borat. Borat's not an accurate depiction of Khazakstan, it's an accurate depiction of America. That's what Hostel is.
In documentary, which is the only thing I'm really very familiar with, women are very easily relegated into a producer role.
I am excited by and impressed with Anthony Joshua, but Anthony has a long way to go. At first, I thought Anthony was similar to a Frank Bruno figure, but after a few fights, I realised he's nothing like Frank Bruno. He's very athletic.
Actors can become very involved in a role, but for a director or producer, that's your life for many years.

I was offered the role of the Reverse Flash on 'The Flash' by Executive Producer Andrew Kreisberg and Greg Berlanti, who co-created the series with Andrew. I said 'yes' immediately because I had worked with those guys before on the show 'Eli Stone.'
My dad worked very hard for the money he made, and my mom worked very hard to keep this household up and running and all the kids fed and everything. And she did it in a brilliant fashion. They both did. In fact, the work ethic, to me, is so important in this life.
My role as a producer is very specific. It's maintaining the creative truthfulness, day in and day out.
I see people talking about Bruno not doing so well against the 'big six.' People have said Bruno gives the ball away too many times when we lose a game.
I worked so hard on that role [of Debra in Dexter]. And I barely worked on Rita. But I read for casting - both parts - and they said, "That's great, we're going to bring you in for producers." So I read for some producers - both parts - and they said, "That's great, we're going to bring you in to meet the creator." And I went in, and as soon as I walked in the room, he looked at me and he said, "Oh my god, you're our Rita!" And I said, "No! I'm Deb! I'm a total Deb!" "No, you're Rita!".
It's interesting most people don't really know what a producer does and really the producer is the very first person on-site and the very last one to leave.
I have a team, the same team of filmmakers I worked with on 'Pi' and 'Requiem'. Which is my cameraman, and my composer, and my producer. We've all worked together for a number of films.
