I can't remember if he ever specifically said how he became involved. I just remember it seeming like it was a lengthy process, like he and Michael Shannon were attached, it was originally supposed to be a movie (I don't know if Taylor was attached then), but this was definitely a project that was in the works for awhile.
He took so much time off after TD and I wonder if part of that was in anticipation of doing this only to find out it was changed to a mini-series and maybe pushed back? It really sounded like he hopped on to American Assassin already knowing he was doing Waco and it was just filling some time between projects.
I don't want to short change 17 Bridges, but I get that same kind of vibe with this movie. That it's just a fill in until his next projects.
