'Chicago' kind of set the bar in terms of how we approach musicals, and tone is one of the key elements.

When we did 'Chicago' and we announced Renee Zellweger, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Richard Gere, and Queen Latifah, everybody went crazy and said, 'What are they doing? What are they thinking?' And, now, you look at the movie, and you see that we chose the people that we wanted for that movie, and we were so proud of all of them.

I don't think we're going to break the law in terms of what you can or can't do on TV. We're looking to do something edgy, different, and special.
