Kristin Scott Thomas Hints at Slow Horses Exit

Speculation is mounting that Dame Kristin Scott Thomas could be stepping away from her role as Diana Taverner in the popular Apple TV spy drama 'Slow Horses.' The five-time Bafta nominee, who plays the MI5 intelligence chief, has been a key figure alongside Gary Oldman's Jackson Lamb for five series. However, those close to the production have observed a shift in her demeanor, suggesting she may be ready to conclude her involvement after filming the seventh season, which is currently in preparation.

Dame Kristin, 65, has previously expressed reservations about long-running television commitments. In a past interview, she stated, "It just goes on and on. I get terribly bored. Series bore me." This sentiment, coupled with reports of her arriving later on set and appearing less enthusiastic, has fueled discussions among colleagues about her potential exit. Her career has often involved completing one project before moving to the next, a pattern that 'Slow Horses' does not typically follow.
