Truly and earnestly, for 2 years we got a script together that was truly excellent with Scott Burns and Rebecca Blunt, and Soderbergh and I. All of us dealt with it. It was incredible. It was actually cool. I do not get to choose.

If they wished to, great, however it’s not our call. I believe the ship has actually cruised. The fan reaction to it was quite amazing. I didn’t anticipate that it was going to be signboards and individuals flying airplanes over Disney and things like that. That was quite cool.”
