From grrliz via GaryOldman.info: Gary Oldman's manager says they don't know yet if Gary will be in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix:

"You will be shocked and surprised to learn that at this time there are no plans for Gary to appear in the next Harry Potter film. To say we are puzzled on this side about this is an understatement at the every least! You may feel free to post this info. If the situation changes, I will let you know. There would be no objection from me if fans wrote letters to Warners about this!"

How can he not be in it?! WTF with a capital W! Oh wait, it's already a capital. with a 98789798pt size W!! He'd better bloody well be in it!

That is just....unfathomable. If there was one thing that I would have thought had to stay in OotP it would Sirius. I don't expect the movies to follow the book completely, in fact I'm happier when they don't, but this has me really puzzled. Could they possibly be thinking of using a different actor? I hope it's just some kind of contract bickering and they get it sorted soon.

I know! They can't cut Sirius out of the story, he's just too integral. Even if they get rid of his entire plotline (!!) - it still leaves Grimmauld Place unexplained. Very, very bizarre.
