Gary Oldman to star in Apple TV drama series ‘Slow Horses’
A darkly comedic espionage drama, Slow Horses is based on Mick Herron's bestselling series of novels. It follows a dysfunctional team of British intelligence agents who've all been reassigned to serve in a dumping-ground department of MI5 known un-affectionately as Slough House. Oldman stars as Jackson Lamb, the brilliant but irascible leader of the spies, who have all essentially been removed from the field for a variety of career-ending mistakes. Desperate to find their way back into the field, these misfits are willing to do anything to impress their boss---whether it's a good idea or not.
