Breaking Baz: Gary Oldman On How ‘Slow Horses’ Picked Up Speed To Score Its Emmy Nominations


Gary Oldman says Slow Horses' nine Emmy nominations, including for Outstanding Drama Series, “puts an added boost and a spotlight" on the spy series.

The series’ Oscar-winning star Oldman was recognized in the Lead Actor In A Drama category for his sly turn as shambolic-looking British intelligence officer Jackson Lamb for the third season of the show, which debuted last November. Originally, the Slow Horses creatives played around with the idea of maybe giving Scott-Thomas’ Lady Di a family, where we would catch the odd glimpse of photographs in a purse. Slow Horses ‘ other nominations in the Drama Series categories include showrunner Will Smith for writing, Nina Gold for casting, Saul Metzstein for directing and Zsófia Tálas for picture editing.
