Gary Oldman

Gary Oldman

Gary Oldman has heaped praise on Daniel Radcliffe and believes the young actor has a long career ahead of him.

The pair have worked together on the Harry Potter movies, a series which draws to a close this summer, and Oldman has nothing but admiration for his younger co-star.

Speaking to MTV Movie News, Oldman said: "As the books have got darker and as the books have got more complex, he's in a different league.

"Who would have known that Emma [Watson], Rupert [Grint] and Daniel, at 11, would have had the chops to take it through to the end?'

"I don't know many 17, 18-year-olds that would have done 'Equus.' And he's now singing and dancing on Broadway. He pops up out of these holes.

"And he's got f----you money, so he can do what he wants. And [he's] dedicated, takes it very seriously and works very hard."

Oldman is back on the big screen later this year as he stars alongside Amanda Seyfried in Catherine Hardwicke's take on Red Riding Hood.

He is also set to reprise the role of Jim Gordon in The Dark Knight Rises, the third movie in the Batman series.
