I see Gary Oldman as Lupin myself. Well, him or Ralph Fiennes. But he 
is a VERY versatile actor so he could probably go either way. I 
always thought Richard E. Grant would make a good Sirius, he's got 
the thin frame, intensity, and blue eyes. Alan Cummings would be my 
pick for Pettigrew.

I would like to see Gary Olman as a nice guy,it must get boring to be 
typecast as the evil psycho killer all the time. Look at how funny 
John Malkovich was in 'Being John Malkovich'.

And since this is my first post here I thought I'd throw my pick for 
Ludo Bagman out. Has anyone suggested Eddie Izzard? I alsways thought 
he'd be perfect for the role since I first read GoF.
