Local casting is just something I love doing.

I always have a backlog of like seven movies that I want to make.

Someone once told me that movies are a universal passport. And it's true, wherever you go.

I'm a big action junkie. I grew up on the '80s action movies - the bad ones and the good ones.

I see a lot of actors for whom life becomes one big schedule. I guess I try to be more sensitive to my private life - to take a breath of fresh air and be in the countryside or on a golf course.

I am proud to say that I plastic-wrapped Bruno Ricci's toilet in his trailer.
