Yay. I'm so glad to see them return. Of course Sirius has to come back but sadly he dies. In the future i hope they always get the same cast because it would be really weird if they replaced characters. The Dumbledore change still hasn't really settled with me but i just hope they don't replace anyone else especially Draco. ^_^

Glad to see that they are not making any actor changes for the key roles. Hopefully all of the actors that have been used in key roles continue doing the movies until the end; i.e. Harry, Ron, Hermione, etc stay the same actors.

Great news, I couldn't imagine those two being replaced.

I'v enever heard that. That would be crazy since Sirius is the bait Voldemort used to get to his final goal
