Oldman Takes on Christmas The British counter-intelligence agency has partnered with Apple TV+ and the actor to breathe new life into this Christmas classic. Re-titling the project “A Christmas Story from MI5,” the video accompanying his narration takes place in Thames House (not Regent’s Park, like the show). “’Twas the night before Christmas when all…
