“I [disse a Spielberg]: ‘I’ve always felt I could play a conductor, but can I research the material and see if I can write and direct it? Would you let me do this?’“, the actor told Variety.
Cooper said that the filmmaker might take a while to have an agenda: “Steven has many interests — he will pick one thing and all other things will be on hold. I think he knew he wasn’t going to make that movie anytime soon. He was kind enough to hand it over to me, and that’s what I’ve been doing for the past four and a half years.“, continued.
