Gary Oldman has revealed Sir Michael Caine has some 'emotional' scenes in 'The Dark Knight Rises'.

The British actor - who plays the role of Jim Gordon in the Batman movie series - has revealed his co-star Michael, who portrays butler Alfred, cries in one part of the film, and he remained incredibly professional about doing it.

He said: 'Watching Michael Caine work, as Alfred, was a great lesson for me. Just focus, concentration. He has this emotional scene, I'm kidding you not. It was tears and the whole thing. And it's, 'Take one'. He got it. 'Take 2', got it. 'Take three', got it. He's just on the money. Every single time. It's just extraordinary. You get inspired by it.'

However, he admits Michael does not always enjoy his time on the set of films and would often rather be elsewhere.

Speaking in a Q&A in New York, he added: 'He loves cricket. He loves soccer, so he comes to the set and wants to get it done. He doesn't f**k around because he wants to get back to cricket.'
