The opporunity to interview Mr. Murphy arose last week and I wasn't sure if I should be excited or scared. Google Don Murphy and see what you get. Some people love him and some well, just don't get on his bad side.

But on the contrary, Don was quite likable and very friendly. He is something that is rare in Hollywood, he's real. There is no beating around the bush here, he tells it like it is. Some people are in this business to make money and others are in it because they love to make movies. Don Murphy is one of the latter. He loves movies and is a fanboy at heart.

We met with Don at his office at the Jim Henson Studios, formerly the Charlie Chaplin Studio, in Hollywood. We had just spoken with Murphy's Torso producing partner, Todd McFarlane and wanted to get Don's take on the recently announced graphic novel adaptation to be directed by David Fincher.

Don also tells us that Shoot 'Em Up with Clive Owen starts shooting within a week and also gives us a quick update on Ironman.

Oh and we had to ask about that other little project he has coming up, Transformers.
