Casting for PoA

[Richelle Votaw]

Well, since it's officially official that David Thewlis is playing Lupin I might as well learn to live with it.  I had hoped we'd end up with a whole group of really gorgeous men, but I guess it's not looking that way after all.  At the rate we're going, if the rumors that Sean Biggerstaff isn't in PoA turn out to be true, Daniel Radcliffe will end up being the best looking person in the movie.  Note I said best looking.  Not sexiest.  That's still Alan Rickman.  Should've been who'ver played Sirius Black, but I just can't see Gary Oldman as sexy.  Better start working on that.

Anyway, can anyone recommend a good David Thewlis movie that will get me thinking of him as Lupin?  Or Gary Oldman for that matter.  I've seen three of his movies (Air Force One, The Fifth Element, and Lost in Space) and none of those characters quite fit the "Sirius Black" persona.  Of course, I'd never have picked Kenneth Branagh for Gilderoy Lockhart, so what do I know?
