Veteran actor <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/entertainment/hollywood-news/article/gary-oldman-aka-sirius-black-calls-his-performance-in-harry-potter-series-mediocre-23327305" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Gary Oldman</a>, who has been recently honoured with Knighthood, felt "very moved" as he received the honour from Prince William.
The 67-year-old actor was bestowed with a knighthood, and he shared that it was a very emotional experience for him, reports &lsquo;Female First UK&rsquo;.
In a video posted onInstagram page, the <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/entertainment/hollywood-news/article/gary-oldman-to-pen--direct-flying-horse-19430154" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Oscar-winning star</a> said, "When it was time to approach, it was hard to find my voice, really. I was very moved by it, yeah. I was saying earlier, you know, you think the Oscar is a big deal and then you come here&rdquo;.
As per &lsquo;Female First UK&rsquo;, the actor also claimed that good fortune has played a huge role in his career success.
The actor explained, "I'm fortunate to do what I do. I personally think it's the greatest job in the world. I've had diabolical good luck. I did about ten years of theatre and then I did a few TV films and then eventually I got kidnapped by the movies. I mean, it was all an accident. None of it was engineered or planned.
Acknowledgement of the work is a bonus and it's the very last thing you're thinking about&rdquo;.
Prince William actually confessed to being a fan of Gary's work during their conversation. The later actor told ITV, "He mentioned The Fifth Element and Churchill of Darkest Hour. He said he was very happy that I was here today and that it was him that had the opportunity to present me with (the honour). He&rsquo;s a fan, yeah&rdquo;.
The London-born star also admitted to feeling "very humbled and flattered" by the accolade. Gary, who won an Academy Award for his role as Sir Winston Churchill in the 2017 movie &lsquo;<a href="https://www.mid-day.com/entertainment/hollywood-news/article/Gary-Oldman-I-am-a-private-person-19074151" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Darkest Hour</a>&rsquo;, said, "I think I feel very honoured, very humbled and flattered, I think in equal measure&rdquo;.
&ldquo;It compares to nothing else. I thought the Oscar was a big deal. No disrespect to the academy, but it sort of pales in comparison to this. It&rsquo;s just been wonderful&rdquo;, he added.
