He called making Werewolf by Night a project that brought back the “pure joy” he felt making movies as a boy. He also said that working with the crew was much like working with world-class orchestra–a group full of “the best talents in the world from every discipline.”

“I’ve been making movies since I was 9 years old. I had my dad’s 8mm camera that I started with, then went onto [the] Super 8 [camera] and 16mm, went to film school, so I’ve been doing it all along. And even in my career as a film composer, I would always make small films on the side, mostly for me, just for fun, because I like doing it,” he said. “…So when I went onto this, which is definitely a much bigger project than I normally would be [doing] in terms of making and directing, it was not unlike working with the orchestra, where the orchestra has very different sections that all give different colors and different emotions. The crew is very much like that too and you’re kind of conducting the crew in the way that you would conduct an orchestra.”
