| Ofcourse I would like nothing more than all of the original actors/actresses play their characters, but does anyone else think maybe some will look older than the part to be played? Especially the Hogwarts students? Thoughts (: |

I've already said this one on here. It doesn't really matter. People in Hollywood are 26 playing 17. It's very common. So, I don't think a 20 year old playing 17 is bad at all. Plus, would you want to see different people playing these roles just because they're a few years old than they should be? _________________

I second that. One of the things that make this movie series so great is that it ,like LOTR, has the same cast throughout. Greatness. |

I think the only character who looks older then they are supposed to be is Harry. _________________

I don't think they'll be too old. Not by a long shot. They have 20 somethings playing high school kids all the time. It's not like their much older, only a couple of years. Hardly any actor plays a character the exact age as themselves. In fact, when you go on an audition, one of the questions they ask you is what your age-range is. _________________

| They won't be too old... plus I can't imagine someone else playing these parts after they have done them for 5 years! |

| Emma Watson is the only Hermione evereverever. I could probably say the same for most of the other actors to for their characters. |

| I think it will work out fine, a lot of teenagers look much older than they are. And hey, it's been happening for years. Judy Garland was 17 and playing a 12 year old in Wizard of Oz, and just look at the 30 year olds playing highschoolers in Grease! Easier to accept an older Daniel than a new actor I would say. |

| They all look pretty good to me expect i wish Harry had more hair..seems like he's losing hair as the years go on..but it's good enough that they resemble them almost perfectly and they don't seem to be changing too much out of character as they get older.. |

I dont think it really matters.. a lot of actors play younger roles when they are older.. as long as they look kinda young.. which i'm sure they will.. and i would want them to be the origanls.. it would not be harry potter without Dan, Rupert, and Emma.. adn even Tom. _________________

They all look young for their age anyway. It's not to big of a difference anyway, so it's no big deal unless they were like 45, which i think would be kinda funny. _________________ I am a fan. Of Harry Potter. I read them. |

They might look a little too old but, who cares? Changing one of the trio would be devistating to the fans! Changing the face of Harry Potter would be a very bad choice. _________________ нαяяy pοттєя<3

The change of the cast is of course out of the question!!!!!
I don't see anyone else in the HP exept the actors that are already in it. Maybe some actors don't fit the book descriptions but it would be crazy to change them now...especially because of the age.
I think that characters like Ginny,Luna and Neville are looking even younger _________________
