Arise, Sir Gary Oldman! Exclusive Interview With ‘Slow Horses’ Star About His Knighthood: “I’m Gobsmacked”
'Slow Horses' star Gary Oldman gives an exclusive interview to Deadline's Baz Bamigboye about the actor's newly announced knighthood and more.
During our interview, I joked that he has served Queen, King and country as Gary Oldman and onscreen in such roles as Winston Churchill in Darkest Hour, which won him his Academy Award in 2018; and as fictional British intelligence officer George Smiley in film Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy; and as the Falstaffian Jackson Lamb in Apple’s Slow Horses. In an official statement released to coincide with news of his knighthood, Oldman commented: “To be included in the long lineage of extraordinary actors, artists, and others who hold this title fills me with indescribable humility and pride. Fellow Slow Horses castmates include Jack Lowden, Kristen Scott Thomas (already a Dame), Rosalind Eleazar, Saskia Reeves, Christopher Chung Kadiff Kirwan and Ruth Bradley.
