SMILEY’S PEOPLE ‘IN THE WORKS’

  Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy star Gary Oldman, mingling with HFPA members and other guests at a reception at Soho House, revealed that a sequel to the spy thriller could be in the works. Oldman, who star as George Smiley, said that the idea of merging Smiley’s People with The Honorable Schoolboy to make one movie has already been discussed, author John Le Carre approves and the director Tomas Alfredson is willing to return. Oldman, known to Harry Potter fans as Sirius Black,  is, he says, currently an unemployed actor. “I have nothing lined up and nothing in the works and I’m very happy to be enjoying my free time,” he says.
