Franco explained, "I love Sam! I’ve known Sam for over 10 years because we did the Spider-Man trilogy together, and he is one of the most fun directors to work with, which is no small thing. A director on a film really sets the tone of how people go about things, so when you have someone like Sam, everybody is happy to be at work and everybody does their best."
He added, "He’s a very collaborative director, not just with the actors, but with all departments, and that really makes people want to do their best because they all feel like they’re a big part of the movie, and they are. So, I love working with Sam. I’d do anything with him."
