Is there a fear of being overexposed?
Not so much because I know that they're all very different roles, directors and types of films. I hope the one common thing is that they're all good. I've seen most of them, and I'm really pleased. There is that sense of, "Oh God, not another Jude Law film," [laughs] which I hope won't happen. But I suppose, because of that, I'm not very comfy. I'm sort of thinking: Oh God, I better hide for a couple years. Let the appetite grow.

How did it feel to work with Gwyneth again?
We had a great experience the first time. We stayed in touch and remained really good friends. We also had the relationship [that the characters have in Sky Captain]. There's something terribly rare and special about that bantering, pal-type relationship between a man and a woman. Films of the '30s with Cary Grant, Katharine Hepburn and Spencer Tracy created such a wonderful energy around that bantering relationship, and it's something that existed naturally between Gwyneth and I. And she's so much fun, you know? She's got incredible humor, incredible tolerance and an incredible natural intuition for how to step into something and get the atmosphere just right.
