No 'Sirius' deal yet, says Oldman's manager

Gary Oldman has not yet been presented with or signed a contract to appear in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, HPANA has confirmed.
Despite a recent statement from the studio, we have learned and double-confirmed that no agreement has been made.
"At this time Gary Oldman is not set to appear in the next Potter film," manager Doug Urbanski told HPANA. "I cannot explain why the studio confirmed his appearance."
It's unlikely Oldman wouldn't reprise his role as Sirius Black in the fifth film.
Note: This does not imply he won't be in the movie, just that there's no current definitive agreement for him to appear.

That's slightly depressing. It would be odd not to have Gary as Sirius, I mean, it was sad enough when we had to get a new Dumbledore. Let's just keep our fingers crossed for now....

Why hasn't there been an update yet on this article?? I'm geting a little impatient about this. they just need to get a contract signed and get it over with, because i highly doubt that Oldman won't take the job of Sirius again.

Gary Olman has to get back to the part of Sirius. There's no one better to play Sirius!

The movie will not be the same without Mr. Oldman's appearance. He is afterall a pivotal character in OOTP. Without him, Sirius Black will not the same again (look in the case of Dumbledore (Richard Harris, bless his soul))

Well, if there is no Gary Oldman (Lord forbid!) in the next movies....I think that Sam Rockwell would be perfect for the part. He just seems so Sirius to me and always has.

Sirius Black is one of my favorite characters. There is no scense in not allowing him to go and act. He makes a good part in the 5th movie.

I read in the paper the other day that there was going to be no more sirius in the 5th movie wich is real silly because why would harry go to the ministry if sirius wasnt there? and he dies this is so not going to work if he is not there. god i hope he is!
