Okay, for Gary Oldman, try Francis Ford Coppola's Dracula, and the 
afore mentioned Scarlet Letter (a two-star flick, if you ask me, but 
the look is there).

 Both roles exude sexiness. To see his acting chops, check out Sid 
and Nancy, and True Romance. He played polar oppossite characters 
that have me convinced he can play anything.

I don't know Thewlis, (actually this is a good thing in my mind, no 
character baggage).

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.

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?
