What if we let Chris Pine play Sirius Black in a Marauders series?

Maybe it is just me but wouldn’t it be fun if Chris Pine played Sirius Black? Just imagine the swagger and the beautiful eyes we’d get!

Now I know this casting of Chris Pine is exclusive to me and makes little to know sense but hear me out okay? Sirius Black is described as one of the most beautiful men before he goes to Azkaban. He has a kind of swagger and confidence to him that is unmatched and, even as a grizzled adult, he still shows respect and love for those around him.

Do I think we could throw on a dark curly wig and make this apply to Chris Pine? You bet I do! I know the leader in the ‘young Sirius Black’ army is Ben Barnes. Which, fine. I like him fine enough and if he took on playing my favorite character, I’d survive it.

But I don’t see Ben Barnes as having that kind of charm that oozed of Oldman and comes with everyone Pine performance. And maybe this is a bit of a ‘I love Chris Pine and Sirius Black so let’s throw them together’ dream.

There is a part of me that wants complete unknowns to play the Marauders but I don’t necessarily think that would work. While yes, anything Harry Potter brings in a crowd, the Marauders is so specific that I think you’d need at least one name in the core four.

So my toss in the ring is Chris Pine. I mean, first we have to get anything Marauders happening in the world but then once that’s happening, I say Pine. Even though he’s probably too old now, I don’t care. I want more Sirius Black in my life and I’ll fight for it.

Next: Harry Potter and the Cursed Child is taking over the world

Rowling, please take this plea seriously and write me the Sirius Black epic I’ve always dreamed of so I can live my days out with Sirius in all his glory.
