Gary Oldman Quit Star Wars out of Respect!

Posted by:

As we have been reporting for some time Gary Oldman has pulled out of Star Wars. Iinitially it was reported that he was fired from Lucas's Star Wars Episode 3. However it would seem that Gary quit out of support for the Screen Actors Guild, since this film violated his unions rules. The film is being made outside of the Screen Actors Guild, so all them union actors technically are not allowed to be in it, without being considered a "rat" so to speak.

Oldman's spokesman says

 "Gary was excited and looking forward to working on the film. The snag is that the movie is being made without members of the Screen Actor's Guild.

"It means Gary would have been working illegally overseas. Out of respect and solidarity with the other members, he could not and would not consider violating the rules of his union."

If Gary Oldman did this because he chose to support his union and do the right then then I give him big props, if he did it because he was pressured to by the Screen Actors Guild because Lucas wouldnt play ball with them, then I am dissapointed. You decide.
