"I'm just glad I got to work with the likes of Spielberg"
About this Quote
The name drop does the heavier lift. "The likes of Spielberg" turns a specific person into a category: not just Steven Spielberg, but the upper tier of directors, the pantheon. Biggs is signaling proximity to cultural power while simultaneously insisting he understands the hierarchy. It's humility with an industry function. You broadcast pedigree without sounding like you're shopping it.
Context matters because Biggs is widely associated with raunchy, youth-oriented comedy. Invoking Spielberg is a way of complicating that brand in one sentence: I'm not only that guy; my career touched the prestige pipeline, too. It also nods to the way actors often narrate their trajectory through mentors and institutions rather than raw craft. The subtext is both gratitude and recalibration: let me be seen as someone serious people hire, even if my most famous work lives in the comedic gutter.
