The rumors that Sirius Black will just vanish or be played by other actor than Gary Oldman in next Harry Potter movie outraged many fans. So the producers had to make sure their audience and the huge Harry Potter fan base will be pleased and signed Oldman to play his character for the next installment of the teen witch and wizard saga.

The 5th movie will be based on J.K. Rowling's book Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix and will be directed by David Yates (Sex Traffic).

The actual shooting is set to take place this summer and the movie is to be released in 2007. Until then the fans have enough time to read the book and wonder how the characters will develop, as the latest movie of the series showed some almost mature teenagers discovering, for the first time, the dark side of life, love and… lust.

Gary Oldman's career has lately evolved around the H.P movies, but he also managed to star in the Christopher Nolan movie "Batman Begins".
