Producer Michael Douglas couldn't have been more pleased with the choice of John Carpenter to direct the film. Douglas said, "John's a great choice for 'Starman'. He's got a great sense of style and deals with action masterfully. I knew he was looking forward to directing a film that's essentially a love story, one that depends exclusively upon handling the relationships between people and their character development". Carpenter was known at the time largely for his great success as a director of horror films such as Halloween - La notte delle streghe (1978), Fog (1980), and Christine - La macchina infernale (1983) but had the opportunity to flex new muscles with "Starman". Douglas added: "Of course, people haven't seen this side of John, and they will be surprised to see how well he handles a love story, a comedy, a tender touching romance, and [an] adventure".
