I just did a part in 'Sin City 2.' I got to do a scene with Ray Liotta. Amazing man, extraordinary gentleman who was just so kind to me... I'm so excited about that; I think it's gonna be very cool.
When I got the invitation to be part of 'The Ghost' or 'The Ghost Writer,' as it's now known, from Mr. Roman Polanski, my interest level was very piqued. I was very excited and pleased to get such an offer from Mr. Roman Polanski.
I did a short film with Donald Glover for one of his Childish Gambino projects, and Flying Lotus was an actor in it.
I have a film I want to direct. Gena Rowlands was going to do it with me a long time ago. It's about an older woman who's running a ranch in the west the old fashioned way.
Imprint' was definitely the scariest project that I've worked on.
One of the most interesting aspects of the film project was collaborating with so many people - directors, filmmakers, and writers - over a five-year period. I learned that there are two components to this.
I'm doing 'Alvin and the Chipmunks.' I get to play the bad guy. That's a nice change of pace.
I received a call from America after finishing 'Suspect', and I told them that I would go to America if things are ready.
I've requested Anand Raghav to write a full length comedy for me.
I went to NYU graduate film school and met Pam [Romanowsky], and after doing a few things with her I thought she had the right sensibility and that she could figure it [The Adderall Diaries] out.
David Wain just texted me and asked me if I wanted to do 'Wet Hot.' And I just said, 'Yeah, sure.' And he said, 'You want me to call you and tell you about the character?' And I was like, 'Not really. Just tell me when, and I'll do it.'
I'd love to do a movie with Denzel Washington, or some action star such as Matt Damon or Mark Wahlberg would be really cool, too.
In cinema, I would not really rate my costar and I would not pick a project because of the costar. I would pick a project because of the director. And the script.
When we produced 'Highway,' Imtiaz Ali and I planned it as a quick small experimental film, while we waited for Ranbir Kapoor's dates later during the year.
A year back when I finished 'Kick,' people asked me about my next. I told them that the thing which fascinates me is getting the three Khans on board. Salman is a good friend and I have good equation with Shah Rukh and Aamir. If I get a go ahead, I would definitely love to do it.
I've actually written a children's film called 'The Myth,' which you could say is like a big 'Harry Potter'-esque fantasy for kids, and that's a film I would love to see get made. That's a dream project of mine.
It would be excellent to do a 'Star Wars.'
I developed that for a long time. I also developed 'Sugar Sweet Science' at New Line and that didn't happen. That was a boxing movie. And between all that there were a couple of other things.
Do you know what I'm working on now? My first feature as a director.
As an actor, 'Chhichhore' has been one of the most creatively fulfilling projects and I thank my director Nitesh Tiwari for making me a part of his vision.
I'm doing a music video for a group called 'Die Antwoord.' That's fun, but yeah, I'm trying to get a live-action film off the ground, and that could take anywhere from a few months to the rest of my life.
I have done films only for the sake of money and sometimes, I have been duped into believing that the film is a sensible project.
I listened to the script of 'Carbon' at the end of 2014. I liked it the moment I heard it. I wanted to do it.
I'd love to do a movie with females in it, and not necessarily the female version of 'The Hangover,' but I'd love to. If I did it it'd star Juliette Lewis, because she's the funniest woman in the world. She's my favorite actress on the planet. If we did a character-based comedy about women, I don't see it out of my range.
I am doing an interesting film called 'Club 60' where I share the screen with many superb actors like Satish Shah, Farooque Shaikh, Tinu Anand, and some more. It's one film I am looking forward to as it has been made very differently.
