An Actors on Actors exchange with Kate Hudson highlighted his preference for material with staying power.

Overview

  • He pointed to When Harry Met Sally as his benchmark, stressing he wants an enduring film rather than a "flash in the pan."

  • The remarks come as he draws awards-season attention, including a Golden Globe nomination for Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere and upcoming work in an Aaron Sorkin sequel.
