Gary Oldman thinks about retirement after the end of ‘Slow Horses’

“I’ve had an enviable career, but careers decline.”

    Oscar winner for Best Actor Gary Oldman is ready to bring down the curtain. Or at least that’s what the actor told the London Times in promoting the second season of ‘Slow Horses‘, the series that stars in Apple TV +.

    “I will be 65 next year, 70 is just around the corner. I don’t want to be active when I’m 80 years old. I would be very happy, honored and privileged to serve as Jackson Lamb. [su personaje en Slow Horses ]and then quit.”

    Fortunately, still we have Oldman left for at least a couple more years. The interpreter has signed on for two more seasons of ‘Slow Horses’, in which he plays veteran spymaster Jackson Lamb, the boss of the fictional ‘Slough House’.

    The actor from the ‘Harry Potter’ film saga, from Francis Ford Coppola’s ‘Dracula’, Commissioner Gordon from Nolan’s ‘Batman’… (Shall we continue?) won the Oscar for playing Winston Churchill in ‘The Darkest Hour’ and was nominated for ‘The Mole’ and ‘Mank’. He will also appear in Christopher Nolan’s upcoming film ‘Oppenheimer’, where he will play President Truman.

    I’ve had an enviable career, but careers decline and I have other things that interest me besides acting. When you’re young you think you’ll be able to do everything… Then the years go by.”

    Let’s hope that Oldman rethinks it, because his withdrawal would mean losing the interpretations of one of the best actors of his generation.
