Quoth Heyman from the linked article:
"I think Ewan McGregor or Jude Law would make a good Lupin.
The only difficulty is that they are meant to be peers of Alan 
Rickman so they've got to be a similar age. "  
I am VERY relieved to hear that this is being addressed. Black, Lupin 
and Snape were at school together and their interaction starting in 
book 3 is CRUCIAL. To cast Black and Lupin with pretty boys would be 
an absolute horror. IMHO. Personally I think Ralph Fiennes might make 
a  great Lupin.
