Sirius/Remus was canon.... sort of

From the livetweet of a cast interview earlier today. http://twitter.com/#!/SnitchSeeker/status/54594602379919360



ETA: But then they later tweeted A thousand sorries, but just listened to the audio again, & Thewlis said he played Lupin as gay because of Cuaron, without JKR's knowledge.

The text doesn't present it as fact (then again, the text doesn't explicitly present Dumbledore as homosexual either), but JKR did in an interview. I think that she said something along the lines of, "He lost his moral compass completely when he fell in love and I think subsequently became very mistrusting of his own judgment in those matters, so became quite asexual. He led a celibate and bookish life."
