Washington, Sun, 11 Dec 2011 ANI

Washington, Dec 11 (ANI): Gary Oldman has revealed that he was pleased to star in 'Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy' because he wanted to play an Englishman again.

 

The 53-year-old British actor has said that he was delighted to leave his Hollywood home to head for the UK to work on the project because he felt like it was "proper".It is always a lot of fun coming back to England and doing things like 'Harry Potter' and Batman, but really they are fantasy worlds, so it is nice to come and do something like 'Tinker Tailor', something proper," Contactmusic quoted him as saying.

 

"Actually, it was also nice to come back and play an Englishman," he said.

 

He also admitted that the all-star cast was another reason why he was glad to play the role of spy George Smiley in the film.

 

"I was just very flattered to be asked to play George Smiley at all. I mean, really, just to be involved in a film like this would've been fantastic.

 

"You've got John Hurt, Colin Firth, Kathy Burke, all these terrific actors, and it's just a delicious part," he added. (ANI)
