I'm a natural puzzle solver.
I love my work, but I don't like being in the spotlight. I was never going to be an actor, that's for sure.
I went to college and graduate school, studying philosophy. I really did think I was going to wind up being a lecturer or professor of some sort.
I got some funky scholarships to play soccer and did well in my SATs, so I went off to college and then grad school but found that that wasn't me. My family, relieved I seemed to have come to my senses, were happy to let me go to film school.
Trying to make a movie like 'Warcraft,' and trying to do it in a unique way... you get killed by a death of 1,000 cuts.
As a filmmaker, the only way that I understand how to make a film is holistically.
I took an incredibly roundabout route getting into feature films.
'Warcraft' is going to be a period of my life I treasure and loathe at the same time.
One of the things my dad always said is that it's O.K. to do one for you and one for them. He taught me a lot of things, but that's certainly one of the many that I took to heart.
