Mccaulay Culkin - he still looks pretty much the same. His features
didn't change dramatically as he aged. While, mostly due to family
trouble, he dropped out of sight for a while, he has been doing very
well on the London theater stage, and has been in a long running play
in which he plays a 15 year old boy (he's 23). Keep in mind that he is
short. 

Now I'm just nitpicking with:
Actually, if you're referring to that thing with Colin Hanks in it too, that's the wrong Culkin - I'm 99% sure it's Kieran, might be Rory but I think Rory's the little one from Signs. It's definitely not Macalauley though - I was in London on Monday, and I saw a poster for it on the tube. I can't remember what it's called... anyone in London care to help me out? Is it Our House or something like that? Gah!

But on the most part, I fully agree with your analysis. I think as long as our kids stay reasonably the same, we should be okay. And it's rather interesting to me that Rupert is shooting up, and Ron's supposed to be gangly, wheras Dan is taking his sweet time, and Harry's supposed to be short. Draco is supposed to be very pale and small, or that's the impression I got, and Felton has this to a tee - obviously some of it is good casting initially, but it's intriguing to me that they've managed to get kids who are actually mimicking the growth patterns of their characters!

Among your other examples, it's nice to see Frankie Muniz doing other stuff than Malcolm in the Middle, although he's still stuck on kids flicks. He seems like a cute kid, and it's always nice to see child actors suceed beyond the gap. As for Tom Welling on Smallville - 23? Wow. I thought he was only about 18 or 19. Who knew?!

who fancies the arse off Tom Welling, and is intrigued to know he's a little older than her - saucy...
