Movies Online Interview With Gary Oldman
|
Canada’s Movies Online interviewed Gary Oldman in Los Angeles on press day for the new Batman movie. To promote the release of The Dark Knight, the actor who portrayed “Sirius Black” in the Harry Potter films has given a few interviews posted online. Some of his replies in this interview may be familiar. Since it was an extensive one, there may be some things his fans don't know.
Here is what he was quoted to have said about Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter):
MoviesOnline: Daniel Radcliffe said that he loved the scene he did with you in “Harry Potter,” that he felt like you were Butch and Sundance in the last scene you did together.
GARY OLDMAN: I love Dan. He’s wonderful.

Mr. Oldman discussed his impressions about working with Heath Ledger (The Joker) in The Dark Knight as well as how the director, Chris Nolan persuaded him to return for a second time to play Lt. Gordon.
“. . . It was just Chris (Nolan) called and said “I’d like you to come back and do the second one and I think the script is really good and you’ve got more to do and I’ve really beefed him out.” I was just at the mercy of that, really, coming in. He’s written me a really nice part. [laughs] Maybe it’s all on the strength of the first one and he felt that I could pull it off. He said “Hang on a minute. I’ve got Gary Oldman playing Lt. Gordon. Why not? Give him something more to do.”
Mr. Oldman commented on what a nice change it is to play a good guy compared to the bad guy roles he had in the past:
“. . . You have to resolve yourself, when you play a good guy – and I’ve wanted to play a good guy for a while. I’ve tried to turn the ship around, and it’s a big ship to turn around. You can’t do it overnight. I just got into this thing of bad guys. You know, you come onto the scene, like “Sid & Nancy,” and no one really knows who you are. Up to that point, I had had a career in theatre. I’ve been in comedies and I’ve been in musicals, I’ve been in all sorts of things. And then you do that sort of performance, and slowly, your career narrows and narrows and narrows.”
Mr. Oldman also discusses his feelings about getting older and being a father.
