JoBlo has a nice summary of John Turturro’s sit down with Stephen Colbert at the Montclair Film Festival where he discussed his projects past, present and future. A brief touch on the Transformers franchise was in there:
Turturro then went on to talk about several milestones in his career, which included anecdotes about working with Woody Allen, Spike Lee, the Coen brothers, Robert De Niro, and Michael Bay on the TRANSFORMERS films. When asked to elaborate on his experience while working with Bay on the man vs. machines toys-to-action series, Turturro stated, “When you ask him [Bay] a question (about your character) he goes, ‘When you see the movie, you’ll understand.’” Heh. That doesn’t seem like much to go on to me, but wait, there’s more.
Feeling the need to give Colbert some more insight, Turturro continued, “I never used to do these big, giant films because there used to be medium-sized films,” he said. “But now there are no medium-sized films. There are small films or giant films. Thank god for television.”
Head on over to JoBlo to read the full summary, and discuss on the 2005 Boards!
