Espionage aficionados still furious one of the century’s best spy thrillers didn’t get a sequel

Not every movie that gets a sequel deserves one, but the unfortunate other side of the coin is that there are often more than worthy features that fully deserve further installments, only to end up being cast aside and consigned to the annals of history. 11 years later, and fans remain apoplectic that Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy remains part of the latter.

Looking at how Thomas Alfredson’s Cold War thriller performed among critics and audiences, not to mention at the box office, it’s admittedly infuriating that we haven’t seen another outing from Gary Oldman’s George Smiley. The acclaimed period piece hauled in over $80 million during its theatrical run, landed three nominations at the Academy Awards, and won rave reviews at the time of its release.
