For a while it was unclear whether Gary Oldman will appear in the next Harry Potter movie - Order of the Phoenix. He played Sirius Black so it was much a given that the producers will want him again.
Just listen to Oldman’s manager himself:
“I’m so relieved and happy. I can’t put my mind in the place of the producers, but I would’ve thought that when they read the book, a call to us would’ve been very high on their list. Obviously, the character of Sirius Black is key”
It has become a tradition to get top British actors to star in Harry Potter. Ralph Fiennes was cast as Voldermort in Harry Potter IV. I’d love to see a cute Gary Oldman figurine become a part of the standard Harry Potter merchandise.
he did a great job in the last movie.
I’m not a big Harry Potter fan but I’d readily agree that Oldman is superb in (almost) any movie he stars in.
