So, it's something that interests me and I'll probably revisit it if I get the chance to do the child soldier film because I think it's one of the most important scripts I've written. It's just too dark to do as a film right now. I need to do something a bit different.

It's kind of like, I have three young children and when I tell them to eat vegetables, the last thing they will ever do is eat vegetables.

I think you have to view going public for what it is, which is a transitional moment where you can consolidate mindshare and win at an even larger scale.
