Both Gary Oldman and David Bowie grew up in South London, and after their first interaction, they developed a friendship that lasted up until Bowie’s passing in 2016. Oldman even reportedly gave a eulogy at Bowie’s private funeral.
“He was always pushing the envelope. He reinvented himself and his music many times," Oldman said. "He was inspiring because he was a great innovator and not afraid to try things. It’s nothing conscious, but that rubs off. He was very, very, very funny, David.”
Maybe Gary's onto something. ❤️
