I thought it was appropriate for him to played by an older actor because I would imagine the long stay in Azkaban along with the guilt of what happened to his best friends, would age him prematurely
I think the fact that the remaining three marauders looked older than 30 ish was very appropriate. Lupin as a werewolf would’ve aged, Sirius aged because of the stress of Azkaban and Peter was a fucking rat for 12 years so
he’s so deeply into his roles that sometimes while being interviewed it’s hard to get out of it. For example he was interviewed while filming True romance and he was a completely different person with a different voice and his accent changed constantly like he was trying to get out. It’s insane i love him.
One thing I have noticed is that when actors are being interviewed around the same time they are filming they tend to stay in character. Usually they just came from filming a scene or they are about to, so they are doing character work in their head to prepare. Also, sometimes it's hard to snap back into character, so when they have a scene that they just filmed, then they have to interview then go back to filming, they will just keep the character going so they won't lose it.
You obviously haven't seen any of his films or pictures, that man is the sex! and he's an amazing actor who should have won an Oscar a looooong time ago.
Gary Oldman is right up there with Brando, Dean, De Niro, Pacino, Bale, Depp, Ledger and many others who simply immerse themselves into the imaginary world in which the character exist in so they can bring him to life in such a way that you beleive they they are that person. I mean he's AMAZING absolutely AMAZING!!!!!! Let's give him an Oscar already I say.
When re-reading HP, it's partly just so I can be with Sirius again. His character is so sexy... I always put off reading the Department of Mysteries chapters, I always cry
+Justin W He's in "the zone" as it were. Basically, if you're really into a role as an actor, you've been doing it for months if not years (TV) then you just "click" into the role and it's hard to break out of it, which includes accents.
Justin W 'Cause he's the king of accent, that's why. He's done all sorts of accents in movies. It's so hardcore to the point of, in a period of time, he forgot how to speak British English properly and had to relearn it. Sorry for my shit English, though.
It's because he has lived in so many different places and picked up a lot of accent over the years. Therefore he's just mixing up the accents sometimes, obviously not on purpose.
I sometimes see comments where people say that they wished they made Sirius look younger but like being in prison for 12 years LMAO. That shit would age me, why am I in prison for something I didn't even do lol
he is the best!!!! i cant believe that girls aren't running after him [no matter if he's 55] but the're running after rob patterson and taylor launter [who cares what his name is]!!!!! gary, you deserve more than you get!!! you r one of my idols!!!! as long as u live, have fun!!! VaporTrail
god how I cryed when sirius was killed. I did not want him to die! and the movies that still is comming have som deaths to that really made me cry when I read the books. :(
I agree! Funnily enough, around the time the 1st HP movie came out, my older brother and I were discussing who could play who, and we immediately thought of Gary Oldman as Sirius! Creepy, no?
@SidewaysDown I know! if you see the "Dracula" movie from 1992, he is dracula and he has a so deifferent role! you can see that he really is a good actor...

Yeah Sirius is mine too, i cried so much at the end of the 5th book. the order of the pheonix is my favourite. perfect book :) Gary oldman is so hot in a i shouldnt but do kind of way
People, there's a facebook group "Get Gary Oldman On Inside The Actor's Studio!!", join and get him there! :) The series in absolutely brilliant if you are interested in anything that has do to with the art of acting, especially if you want to hear your admired thespian talk about their craft. Personally, I'm fervent to hear him talk on that show :]
@Lynn15 The third movie was the best. Maybe because there was no Voldemort. He is so one-dimensional. But Sirius... mmm... dreamy. Both in the books and films.
I still think they could have gone with the long black hair.. Can't understand why they didn't go with that in the first place. Gary Oldman is still AMAZING, though..
so terrible that sirius died... i cried and cried, couldn't believe it... it's so sad when he returns in the Deathly Hallows, when i see it in the movie i'll go crazy. sirius is really handsome, he looks so very good... did you already see that sirius has got tattoos on his chest? wonder if he has got some everywhere else^^
