[on “The Fast & the Furious” franchise and being real and authentic]: That’s what’s capturing people, unless of course you’re doing Avengers Assemble (2012) where you’ve gotta be larger than life and you’ve gotta be out there and turn green and drag your arm down the side of a building, and jump all over the place. But for us, I like having (special effects) to fall back on. You allow the creative minds to get in there and figure out how to do it real, and it gives you more to be proud of.

[on working on Hours (2013)]: What I’ve found recently is the heart, the soul, whatever you want to call it, it doesn’t differentiate: If you really live the experience making a movie, it’s the same as living it in real life, as crazy as it sounds. My victory in that movie was my victory in real life. You walk away with that, walking a little taller and a pop in your collar. You learn a lot about yourself. It’s heroic in a different way. We’re pretty awesome when we’re tested. Call it the human spirit or whatever you want, I like celebrating our victories.
