"Gary Oldman has said that he likes to lead a quiet life. The actor, who will soon be seen as George Smiley in a new adaptation of John Le Carr\u00C3\u00A9 novel Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy, told Esquire that he maintains a discreet attitude on and off set. Oldman explained: &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;ve never really courted [fame]. I still don&amp;#039;t have a publicist. If I&amp;#039;m in a film, you have an obligation to promote it, I&amp;#039;ll do as much as I can. &amp;quot;On set I keep myself to myself; I&amp;#039;d rather the director speak up. I&amp;#039;m not gonna direct a younger actor. I think the power of example works best, actually.&amp;quot;  Oldman also added that he thinks his soap star sister Laila Morse - who plays Mo Harris in EastEnders - attracts more attention from fans, saying that fame &amp;quot;comes in waves&amp;quot;. &amp;quot;Overall I enjoy a certain anonymity. I live a very normal, very ordinary life,&amp;quot; he added. Oldman&amp;#039;s interview will appear in the October issue of Esquire magazine, which goes on sale next Monday. Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy - which also stars Colin Firth, John Hurt, Tom Hardy, Benedict Cumberbatch, Mark Strong and Toby Jones - opens on September 16 in the UK and December 9 in the US. &amp;gt; Gary Oldman: &amp;#039;RADA said I wasn&amp;#039;t an actor&amp;#039; Watch a 60-second trailer for Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy below:  Move through a Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy character poster gallery below: "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
