I don't really see the point.

Why would the actors have to retain "very young, childish"
looks, if they are characters that are growing up in the
books.

I don't expect Harry or Ron or anyone else to keep looking
like 12 year olds, if they are supposed to be fifteen and
older in coming movies.

All three actors already look very different from the
characters described in the books, and while JKR doesn't
describe changes in their looks very much, I still assume
they happen.

So, if Rupert's face changes more or Daniel's, I really fail
to see why that should make them lose their roles, if they
want to continue.

All the kids who've been following the story are changing,
too, and new, young viewers probably wouldn't expect 16 year
old Harry to look like a little kid, either.
