Elijah Wood has been extremely outspoken in regards to child-acting.
Called it false and dangerous, or something like that. Maybe he regrets
having missed out on all that normalcy. We all know that Michael
Jackson and McCauley Kulkin *sp* had terrible childhoods, so Elijah had
it pretty easy in comparison.

What concerns me is that after the 7(+) movies, Dan Radcliffe will be
known as Harry Potter. Unless he changes his looks in some drastic way,
he won't shake that off, and film roles offered to him might be a
little...stale. Rupert Grint has, of course, managed to avoid that, but
I wonder if Dan will be so lucky?
