I Don't Personally Look To

I've Always Believed That The Director Does Whatever The Hell He Wants. That's What You Sign On For As An Actor - I Can't Stand It When You Have Actors Who Are Trying To Leverage Directors Into Doing Things They Don't Want To Do.

I Ain't The First On The List That People Are Sending Scripts To. I'm Very Lucky. I've Managed To Put Myself In The Position With Some Directors, Yes, Who Will Be Calling Me Directly, And We're Working On Things And Talking About Things, But That's On A Purely Creative Level. And Then You Go And Have To Deal With The Financial Level.

We Were Incredibly Fortunate To Get To Make Three Batman Films. That's Enough. Let's Not Get Greedy. It's A Torch That Should Be Handed From One Actor To Another. So I Enjoy Looking Forward To What Somebody Else Will Come Up With.

I Don't Think I Was Particularly In Need Of Superheroes. I Never Had Any Fascination With Superman Or Spider-man Or A Batman Kind Of Character. If It Happened At All, It Was Imagined Characters That I Had Invented. My Dad Was A Role Model For Me. He Was A Fascinating Man. There Was Intrigue And Entertainment Growing Up With Him. He Gave Me An Edict That I Still Pursue: “life Should Never Be Boring."

I Went Backwards And Forwards Over It Until I Was 22. And Then In The Past Few Years I Began To Say To Myself, Ok, Look, I'm Not Messing Around. This Is Something I Want To Attack, Instead Of Thinking, I'll Just See What Happens With It.
