The Oscar-winning actor, 64, shared that he intends to wind down his illustrious career when he completes his run in the acclaimed spy drama Slow Horses.

Oldman continued, sharing that while he has signed on for two additional seasons of the Apple TV+ series, he doesn’t intend to work well into his later years like some actors.
