GARY OLDMAN TALKS BATMAN
July 6, 2012 - Oldman commented on Michael Caine’s emotional scene in The Dark Knight Rises. This statement verifies how all the actors are well trained to pull off such an emotional roller coaster of a movie. The movie must demand a lot from all the actors including Anne Hathaway who plays the ambiguous Catwoman. Christopher Nolan brings a fine cast up to bat for the finale of the Batman trilogy.

December 16, 2023 - “At 42 years old, I woke up divorced and I had custody of [my] boys,” Oldman said. “That, in itself, was… that was hard because there was a shift in the industry where a lot of productions were being [filmed in] Hungary, Budapest, Prague, Australia, you know, all of these places. So, I turned down a lot of work.” · “Thank God for ‘Harry Potter,’” he said. “Thank God for ‘Harry Potter.’ I tell you, the two — ‘Batman’ and ‘Harry Potter’ — really, they saved me, because it meant that I could do the least amount of work for the most amount of money and then be home with the kids.”
