It's always difficult when you want to do something really new, and you also want it to reach the masses, because the majority of people want to see what they've already seen before, or that they're already familiar with. To open the majority of peoples' minds to something new is difficult.
It's great to write for actors when you know who they are. I think I prefer it.
I want to do different projects and be versatile. I don't want to get fixed into narrative comedy.
I think that you can make a drama and have it be intensely funny, and vice versa.
I really think that you can extract a lot of comedy out of really dramatic, intense situations.

I'm much more a writer than an actor. Although I have a great respect for that and I enjoy acting still, it really is about the world that I'm creating. That's where my future is.
I often don't like seeing how different things are made. I'm not a big fan of behind the scenes stuff.
