Definitely the script because you want to be part of an interesting story, you want your character to be a challenge, then comes the director. But essentially it's the script first and whether it's a character that you think you can do.

I don't like to come at my character from some really technical place.
Eric Bana
I occasionally go to the gym and I lift free weights, I don't use machines.
Eric Bana
Without a doubt, rowing is the hardest thing you can attempt to learn in a short period of time.
Eric Bana
The thing I love about working with first-time directors is that it's always quite shocking how little difference there is between them and directors who've been directing all their lives.
Eric Bana
I'll give you a list of a hundred ways that I'm more likely to be injured than belting around a race track with people who know what they're doing. It's not a place where I feel I'm in unnecessary danger.
Eric Bana
I wanted to be a mechanic. When I was 14 I wanted to quit school and go work on my car. But my dad said Son, you shouldn't do that. You should stay in school until your education is finished, and when you're done, don't make your hobby your job.
Eric Bana
I never look at the size of the film when I'm looking for a part.
Eric Bana
If you're lucky enough to be involved in a film that's about something very real and that you hope will continue to hold up in 20 years' time it just gives you more energy and makes it feel all the more worthwhile.
Eric Bana
Film sets are great fun. Film people are great people to hang around with. I don't want to run off and be distracted by other things.
Eric Bana
When I was a kid, I would do stupid things on my bike. I'd jump any ramp, I'd jump over people, I'd jump over things - always crashing, never hurting myself badly but always wanting to take physical risks.
Eric Bana
I would never say never to returning to comedy.
Eric Bana
I fell in love with many women at school who had no idea I existed. I'm a bit of a romantic.
Eric Bana
But it's healthy - whatever you can do to keep you fresh and awake. Acting's such a ridiculous job and sometimes you need to look at it like that to get a sort of degree of freshness.
Eric Bana
I think there are times when you walk onto a set you can potentially be either intimidated or distracted by what's going on around you.
Eric Bana
It's always bitterly disappointing to people to see how normally one can live.
Eric Bana
There's a plethora of wonderful documentaries. I made a point of not looking at anyone else's portrayal of Henry because I think it would have been too confusing - so I've got a lot of films to look forward to.
Eric Bana
I really enjoy working on small films.
Eric Bana
I usually befriend the camera department very early on in the film and drive them nuts. I'm constantly bombarding them with questions and going through the stills photography. A film set is a great place for me and I love it.
Eric Bana
Each time you go to the same track you know whether you're improving or whether you're not... it's not open to interpretation. It's measurable - unlike acting.
Eric Bana
I love being at home, being with friends and family. I'm of European stock, brought up in Australia. I'm a passionate guy. I just love life.
