The 41-year-old actress made the decision to step behind the camera and feels she makes a great director because she is a woman and they are the best problem solvers in the world, reported Contactmusic.

"I knew when I was on set as an actress I wasn't reaching my full potential as a human being, and I love telling people what to do - I'm really good at it.

"I say this confidently, not arrogantly. I'm a really good director because I'm a woman, because directing is about problem-solving and I think woman are the best problem solvers in the world," Longoria said.
