The first three images have been released from Thomas Alfredson’s take on John le Carre’s classic spy novel, Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy. In them we get to see Gary Oldman, Colin Firth and Gary Oldman all looking very wiggy in the movie about retired British intelligence officer George Smiley (who is often described as being a sort of quiet, anti-James Bond figure, here played by Oldman), who is asked to return to his old agency to discover which of his former colleagues is a Russian spy. Peter Morgan (The Queen, Frost/Nixon) is on scripting duties, and the cast also includes Mark Strong, Benedict Cumberbatch, Ciaran Hinds and Kathy Burke. A September 16th release date is set. The film worth watching out for, as Oldman recently suggested it’s the greatest part he’s ever played, which suggests it may be something special. (Images via Movie Pilot)
