I think Canada, our industry is still somewhat based in America's industry.
I'd rather not make films than make bad ones.
If you don't live a normal life, how do you relate to people?
I mean, I grew up an athlete training and training and training. So I kind of have that mentality.
Well, when I did Underworld 2, I was in Vancouver for five months and I was reminiscent to be back up there.
You've got to just go do what you do - you can't really worry about who was attached to the movie before.
I'd like to do the young cadet thing again for sure, but that's why I wanted to do this, to see if I could do it. I took the scenes out of the script and put them together and read them as one little arc, story and that seemed to work.

I went to the University of Toronto for a year, and I'm always trying to get across what university is really like.
And when I have lived elsewhere, every two weeks I have to fly back to LA. Even New York directors go there to audition. So I have to be there to a degree.
Duets is about six people, so it's like three different movies - three different duets. I was on the set 18 days, spread out over three and a half or four weeks.
I'm not a guy that loves a lot of rehearsal, but it depends. It depends what it would be.
I bought a house in LA, hanging out there and spending a lot of time in Toronto, but not much.
