Oldman 'lucky' to have landed 'Spy' role

Gary Oldman feels "lucky" to be able to play a leading role in 'Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy'.

The British actor stars as spy George Smiley in the forthcoming drama adaptation – which also stars Colin Firth, Tom Hardy and John Hurt – and despite many proclaiming his performance to be one of his best, he doesn't think he would be able to do a good job without an excellent team around him.
