YES YES YES!!!  I suggested this to a friend who is also a B5 and HP fan,
and she agreed wholeheartedly.  He has the black hair, he's about the right
age, he's British, he's definitely a good actor, and - perhaps more
importantly - he can play both haggard and on the run!Sirius and doing
better and looking good!Sirius.  My justification for saying so is this: on
Babylon 5, he played a good looking, well groomed character, rather refined
and dignified.  So, good for when Sirius is doing better.  But what sealed
it for me was seeing him play a demon on the TV show _Charmed_ - I believe
it was last season.  He looked haggard and ugly with long hair and was an
absolute mess - I almost didn't recognize him.  So, I really think he'd work
as Sirius, and I really really want him to be cast.  If I knew of a way to
get him in front of the director/producers/casting director for PoA, I
would.  It matters that much.

But what's really odd, comparatively, is that I have NO feelings whatsoever
on who should play Lupin.  No one that's been suggested sounds good or bad
to me - I'm completely indifferent about it.  Weird, huh?
