On working on Event Horizon[]
" It took over nine sound-stages at Pinewood Studios in London to shoot the film. Because most of the movie is set on the ship, they had to construct a huge labyrinthine space that one could walk through for days and days and not enter the same room. You could be alone in there and there could be someone else with you, and you wouldn't meet them for a week unless you knew exactly where they were. We really wanted to emphasize that scale, and the best way to do that was to build sets which really conveyed that idea."
Personal life[]
He is married to Ukrainian actress Milla Jovovich with whom he had a daughter, Ever Anderson, who also started a career in acting.
