“I'm always curious what the world is trying to tell story wise.”

“I was born in Switzerland. Everyone thinks I'm Swiss, but I'm actually German. I'm from Germany. It's a small country. You don't have as many great actors there, of course.”

“I love challenges, and I get bored very easily, even on set.”

“There is always a collaboration between the director and the actors, and you always have to listen as the actors have to listen to you as a director. In the end, you as a director, of course, are the captain on the ship.”

“You have to edit it, mix it, color grade it, there are processes and the audience doesn't care when they binge-watch a show. They think in four weeks you should get the next season.”

“The worst thing for me as a filmmaker is to watch on the iPhone but you can't stop it. I think you have to adapt to it.”

“I love Atlanta. It's a great city with great crews there, but it's really hard to make it into a Las Vegas version of it because it doesn't look at all like Las Vegas.”

“But, you always have to listen to everyone, because I'm not always right and other people have great ideas, too. I think that makes great moviemaking.”
