You pull anyone from an alien planet down to Earth, and you want to show them great work, show them Tywin Lannister on 'Game of Thrones.' I mean, it's just as good as it gets.

I never seem to get past - I feel like a stupid guy from the Midwest.

'Terra Nova,' more than anything I've ever done in my life, is for everybody.

For 'Game of Thrones,' I realized immediately that it was about the characters.

There's always the pressure on the director of how to transition from one scene to another, especially when it can really be oblique on 'Game of Thrones.'

Death is either an incredible ending to a story or, more often than not if you ask the right questions, it's the beginning of a story.
