PRODUCTION
  • "They could not believe anyone could shoot a film like this and be conscientious and responsible. They guessed the film would cost $100 million. I told them, 'No. I can do it for $55 million.' They did not believe me. They were not used to a director keeping to his budget."
    (Director Roland Emmerich, in a 1994 interview with Rice Paper's Monica Sztybel)

  • "There has been plenty of talk about doing a sequel, from everyone who worked in the first one. Both James (Spader) and Kurt (Russell) are enthusiastic about the idea."
    (Director Roland Emmerich, in a 1994 interview with Rice Paper's Monica Sztybel)

  • "The script was just awful, and that sort of intrigued me. ... Acting, for me, is a passion, but it's also a job, and I've always approached it as such. I have a certain manual-labourist view of acting. There's no shame in taking a film because you need some f---ing money."
    (Actor James Spader, in an interview with The Globe and Mail)
