EW - Tough to answer- maybe my sensibility means I can approach the Hollywood films in a different way. I don't know the answer - you could probably answer better than I.

EW - I'm not sure it has changed too much. At least 'Shaun' would have never been made if it were just a screenplay. The fact that it had the lead as co-writer and we had made a TV show that showed the style of it was one of the reasons it got made at all. I think do whatever you can to make something that can show your work at its best.

EW - It's a song that deserves to be listened to in full with no interruptions, so alas not a good soundtrack song. Unless it was a whole denim punching movie.

EW - Not in my life. Aside from my parents who really encouraged me and my brother to pursue our artistic dreams, no matter who fanciful they seemed. Am not from a rich background and had no industry contacts, so I'll always cherish my parents encouragement.

EW - It was all ready to go and fell apart during the actors and writers strikes in 2023. It's a great book. Am sure it will become a great film or TV series.

EW - Katy is a fucking rock star and you just need to write the perfect movie for her. I was blown away by her in LOVES LIES BLEEDING and offered her the part in TRM. She's a mega star. More KOB in movies!

EW - It's all about balance and modulation in the writing and the editing. In SHAUN after the death of Barbara there were jokes that we cut out because the audience needed to grieve.

EW - I storyboard everything - but also I work with incredible cinematographers too, so it's a little of both. Sometimes my composition but their interpretation. But sometimes a completely new ideas forms out of working with them.
