Actually Gary Oldman has 3 sons...  Alfie is 10, maybe 11 by now, 
Gulliver is 5 and Charlie is 4.  I agree he is a chameleon type actor 
and will probably do very well in this role, since he does dramatic 
as well as a tad psycho well.  I have never seen him do otherwise, 
even if I wasn't crazy about all his movies, LOL!
Lynnette, who thinks Snape IS a good guy, even if he is NOT a nice 
one!
