Gary Oldman reveals Demi Moores response after he was unprofessional and destructive on set

Gary Oldman revealed that he was forced to apologize to former co-star Demi Moore for his “destructive” behavior on the set of the 1995 film, “The Scarlet Letter.”The Oscar winner, 67, opened up about his “unprofessional” behavior, saying his past issue with alcohol caused him to act out while filming the romance film.In the film, Oldman starred as Reverend Arthur Dimmesdale opposite Moore, 62, who played Hester Prynne.“I think the worst thing you can do is inspire disappointment,” the “Slow Horses” actor told Radio Times.“I was in The Scarlet Letter with Demi Moore, and I had intermittent bouts of boozing during filming.It was towards the end of [my drinking] where I thought, ‘If I carry on like this…”The British actor, who was 36 when the film was released, said he was “in a very dark place” at the time.“I drank too much in the lunch hour.
It was such a destructive thing.I got back on the set to do quite a big scene and I got through it,” he said.“You wouldn’t really know but I was quite tipsy.
And the next day, I said to her, ‘I’m so sorry, you must hate me.'”“I was mortified that I’d been so unprofessional.And she said to me, ‘I don’t hate you.
It’s okay.I’m just disappointed,'” he added.Oldman’s past issues with booze landed him in rehab in 1994 after he was arrested for drunk driving three years prior.The actor has now been sober for 28 years and previously credited Alcoholics Anonymous for helping him overcome his addiction.These days, he has “no desire to even take a sip.”Earlier this year, Oldman heaped praise on Moore for her success in the hit film “The Substance.”Speaking exclusively to The Post at the 2025 Screen Actors Guild Awards in February, Oldman said that the “Ghost” actress “is very special.” Morning Report delivers the latest news, videos, photos and more.
