Sirius Black (Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix)

“We’ve all got both light and dark inside us. What matters is the part we choose to act on. That’s who we really are.”

TV or Movie: Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

Actor: Gary Oldman

Time of Death: July 11, 2007

Cause of Death: hit with a killing curse from Bellatrix

This is the second victim on this Top 100 list by Bellatrix in the Harry Potter movies. It was all the more tragic as Sirius was ready to take Harry and settle down as a family, giving Harry that stability that he had never had. However, the battle at the Department of Mysteries at the Ministry of Magic put an end to that dream.
