But remember, book 2 begins in 1992, as Nearly-Headless Nick celebrates the 
500th anniversary of his death in 1492.  So unless they change the 1492 date 
(very unlikely, considering that Chris Columbus' production company is called 
1492 Productions -- get it?), then DDL is actually a bit old for the part, 
though no doubt he can play the right age.
