Ahh, well, *my* first choice for Lupin has always been Ralph Fiennes, 
because for some reason I've been thinking of Lupin as, well, sexy, 
but perhaps not as dead-sexy as Sirius. David Thewlis has a decent 
overall look for Lupin, but IMO he's missing a certain softness 
around the eyes that I've always envisioned Lupin having...and which 
Ralph has in spades :D Ironically I had been thinking of Thewlis for 
Peter Pettigrew!! (My list of potential Pettigrews was quite long.)

Anyway, if Gary Oldman has been cast as Sirius, and JKR has some kind 
of general approval on casting (true?), does that mean JKR finds Gary 
Oldman dead-sexy??

finally released)
