Gary Oldman vs. Sirius Black
While I was surfing the Internet, I found something. It turns out that Mr. Oldman was debating on being Sirius Black in “Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.” Here is a quote I found on Dissendium.com:
“Douglas Urbanski, of the Douglas Management Group has told Dissendium that unless an offer is made by next week, Gary Oldman will not be reprising his role as Sirius Black in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. A deadline has been put in place for early next week, Mr. Urbanski told Dissendium. He said that the desire on Warner Brother’s part has been low since the beginning, even though the money Oldman wants to reprise his role is little. He added that it is unfair for Oldman to wait, as other films have assumed he is apart of the next Potter film, and, like the rest of us, he needs work for the summer. As of this moment, Gary Oldman is not a part of “Order of the Phoenix,” has never been, and unless anything changes next week, will not be a part of this.”
That was on the 21st.
Here is the article that was just published today:
“Douglas Urbanski, who represents Gary Oldman, has just confirmed to Dissendium that Gary Oldman will reprise his role as Sirius Black in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. Oldman was able to read the script last night, and a deal was made this morning after Urbanski spoke with Harry Potter producer David Heyman. Yesterday was also Oldman’s 48th birthday. We wish him all the best!
While he was debating, a number of his fans “approched” him and told him why he should stay on and be our Sirius Black! Not only is he perfect for the role, he is the ONLY one who can play Sirius down to the book.
Way to go, Mr. Oldman! We are glad that we will see you in OOP!
