Gary Oldman – The Dark Knight Rises interview (kinda)

Check the interview here.

Well actually it should be an interview about Red Riding Hood (omg!! directed by the director of twilight!!!), but everyone is reporting it as interview about The Dark Knight Rises.

He hasn’t read the script, but heard Nolan’s storyoutline and it contains a good role for Gordon (but seeing after the events of Dark Knight this one is hopefully to be expected).

Oldman says that the story will return to Batman Begins and that there will be a discovery of Bruce Wayne about himself.

Now I don’t think this “proves” the rumors that the League of Shadows returns, maybe they do, but maybe he means the evolution of Wayne or that it will be about his parents again… one never knows.

Of course Oldman tells us that Nolan has topped Dark Knight, it is the usual studio hyperbole, we have all grown accustomed to, but the fact that he can pin down a theme and a characterdevelopment gives one hope.
There is a story at the heart of it all, something worth telling and it’s not the usual “oh it’s bigger and more action” or “batman gets new cool toys”, which is always a good sign.

Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy
Watch out for this movie!
Because like the Doc used to say when this movie starts “… you’re gonna see some serious shit“.

Based on the british spy novel of the same name Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy is directed by Thomas Alfredson – the director who made the beautiful Let the Right one in, one of the best movies of 2008 and definitely the best modern vampire movie.

Among the cast is not only Gary Oldman, but also:

Colin Firth
Tom Hardy
Mark Strong

and…. (drumroll)

Konstantin Khabensky!

The russian actor who played the lead role of Anton Gorodetsky in both Nightwatch and Daywatch.

If this movie is only half as exciting as the cast, I’m ok with it.
