I've already felt that I want to direct. Being an executive producer is like the best job in the world because you make all these executive decisions and then you leave the money to other people. You don't have to be on set and counting beans.
More Quotes from Robbie Coltrane:
We cut a few lines that we were doing that seemed to repeat themselves. But the writer is around a lot, and he's not possessive about his lines. And so the important thing obviously is to tell the story as it was. Because the children will soon let you know if you messed that thing up.Robbie Coltrane
My son's the same, he's terribly funny. It's a wonderful power to have. It's also fantastically disarming. Women find it unbelievably disarming. You can say the most astonishing things if you're funny. You can tell a woman that she's irresistibly attractive, but do it in such a funny way.
Robbie Coltrane

It's a very bad time for genuinely creative people to do television or anything now. There isn't a huge audience anymore to get the big budget which you need to make good drama unless you get sponsorship or unless you get teen stars to be in them. That sort of ties in with marketing and Coca-Cola and all that stuff.
