Men are attracted to youth and beauty; women are attracted to power.
I’m weird. I’m not too focused on the physicality of a man. They just have to become my best friend, and then I start to get attracted to them. I’ve never been in a bar and just hit on a guy and started kissing him; I’ve never done that in my life.
I think I am naturally attracted to things that are a little bit out of this world.

I just was attracted to just wanting to make noise on different things.

I took the first James Kelman novel, ‘The Bus Conductor Hines’, home to my dad.

That was part of what attracted me to crime – the idea of getting a wide audience.
In New York City, it’s popular. I used to think to myself, ‘Man, there’s a lot of gay people out here.’ And it had me comfortable: it was like, I can be myself! I used to still try to hide it, until it was really overwhelming – there were just too much girls attracted to me!
What has always attracted me in life is poetry. Any genre can have poetry. For me, poetry contains truth.

With ‘Girls’… I feel like there’s an impulse to try to make it look better or neater or more perfect, and when I watch theater, television, movies, it’s always the imperfection I’m always more attracted to.

I just grew up watching a lot of movies. I’m attracted to this genre and that genre, this type of story, and that type of story. As I watch movies I make some version of it in my head that isn’t quite what I’m seeing – taking the things I like and mixing them with stuff I’ve never seen before.
The roles that I always get attracted to are roles where the material is based on an actual person.

‘Thunderbolts’ I was mostly attracted to because I really wanted to write Punisher and Elektra and Deadpool, who are characters I have always really enjoyed.

I’m attracted to fights.
It’s true I’ve always been attracted to the jazz band in an orchestral way, rather than a band way.
