Gary Oldman Says Sirius Black Was Not in the ‘Harry Potter’ Movies Enough: ‘He Turned Up and Then He Went Through the Veil’
My teenaged fan self will probably never get over Sirius Black turning up as Gary Oldman with Hulk Hogan facial hair, after everyone collectively envisioned him as a raven-haired motorcycle jacket male model baddie and assumed he must still be hot after a decade in prison. He wasn't even hot in flashbacks. The disappointment was immense. More on reddit.com
Gary Oldman, who played Sirius Black, was really upset after reading OOTP

Gary Oldman Clarifies Harry Potter Criticism on Playing Sirius Black
May 22, 2024 - “What I meant by the Harry Potter remark is that there was such secrecy that was shrouded around the novels, they were under lock and key … If I had read the five books and I had seen the arcs of the character, I may have approached it differently. I may have painted in a different color.” · Oldman continued: “When I started Harry Potter, all I had was the book (The Prisoner of Azakban) and the representation of that man — one book in the library of Sirius Black.
