Gary Oldman looks like a bag of ass in Slow Horses. Is he a method actor? Like did he intentionally let himself go for the role? Or is he just Gary MF Oldman, this is how he is now, & he’s such an amazing actor that nobody GAF?*

- Yes his character is a fat slob who farts, belches, and insults his subordinates* - By Big M September 20, 2026 at 08:28:21 PM
- I think it is very much intentional for the role. I’ve seen contemporaneous interviews with him where he looks nothing at all like his character * - By WestSideBlue September 20, 2026 at 08:25:49 PM
