The studios made all this money from action movies. They said, ‘Why would we go and change the mould? We’re making a lot of money with you. We keep giving you action scripts’. Then, when I finally met Ivan Reitman, and when we did Twins and then we did Kindergarten Cop, I was in heaven. It was such a great director and working with Danny DeVito. It was really great”.
