These two roles for Gary Oldman are the ones that got me too. I was talking to a random person about Oldman as Gordon. And they said oh yea I really liked him in Harry Potter. I froze up for a second thinking through all the characters. Not finding him quickly so I assume he was a much more minor role. Some shop keeper or something. And then had to ask.
“He was Sirius black!” I felt dumbstruck, my whole face went loose as I realized. And I said holy crap! “From Gordon to Sirius to John Baptiste Emmanuel Zorg. That dude has some range”
The person I was talking to froze up and went loose faced the same as me. They didn’t know he was Zorg.
I looked him up on IMDB because of this comment, and I had no idea Batman’s Gordon and Sirius Black from Harry Potter was the same actor.

The dude becomes. He doesn’t act.
And let’s not forget his marvelous performance as the unhinged detective in Leon/The Professional. Chef’s kiss
Jean-Baptiste. Emanuel. Zorg.
Let’s even further not forget his role of a lifetime in “Tiptoes”
I really do love that movie.
He used the same dreads wig one of the other actors wore in this movie when he played Drexl in True Romance. I love that movie!
Shit, I was smugly sitting here thinking I knew all his roles, only to check IMDb and find out he was Truman in Oppenheimer. Fuck! this chameleon.
