Talking to Esquire about the stresses of making big budget movies, McGregor shares, “Very big studio pictures are tedious to make. If you’ve got eighty people in your crew, as opposed to two or three, suddenly you’re with all these massive f*cking egos walking around.”

McGregor continues, “All that takes up time and money, which is why they take five months to shoot. Everyone’s quite happy if you come home having done a third of a scene. I can’t stand it. As a Scottish working man, I’m like, ‘F*cking get on with it.'”

Discussing his film American Pastoral, which he directs and stars in, McGregor explains, “I spent a whole day with the script, just turning the pages slowly and thinking, Okay, can I see myself playing this scene and having done the prep for it and then doing the postproduction for it? Can I do it? Can I do it? Can I do it? I came to the conclusion that yes, I should definitely give it a go. I would always be regretful if I didn’t.” Read more on Esquire.com.
