1. Steven Spielberg

Also dubbed as the greatest director in Hollywood of all time, Academy Award-winning Steven Spielberg has directed 39 films. He is also a writer, producer, and actor. He is said to be very involved in making his films, which sets his films apart from many others. He is known to be very professional, and has even been called a directorial genius. According to Business Insider from an interview with Ed Burns about working with said director, “He allowed us several takes to figure things out for ourselves. So much that he didn’t provide any direction for almost two weeks.” He did not barge in when actors made mistakes, and allowed them to do what they knew they had to do.

The bottom line is that when a director has extensive experience and has developed the mastery of his craft, he tends to be easy to work with. The more proficient they are, the more they are understood by the actors, the better their working relationship would be. The 10 easiest directors to work with all have great films you can see, and from the scenes, you can sense how easy they worked on it in the set.
