The actual paragraph says:

A rep for Warners said the studio will likely bring back the franchise's 
aging kid stars--Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint --for the fourth 
adventure, but it's possible filmmakers may decide to recast. A separate 
announcement regarding those roles will be made soon.

I would put my hopes on the wording 'will likely bring back the franchise's 
aging kid stars...', rather than 'it's possible filmmakers may decide to 
recast' <g>
After all, the kids have already said they want to do it and with the filming 
schedule so tight, I can't see the advantage of recasting before GOF anyway.

I know I would consider not even seeing GOF if they recast - call me strange, 
but I can't accept new actors, especially if any of the lines of the movie 
recall past events. It would be too jarring, some other actor as Ron saying to a 
new Harry, 'hey remember when you killed that basilisk' ;) And before 
everyone jumps on me and says, 'they never say that in GOF', I know that. But a 
script is not the book and you never know what kind of continuity dialogue they 
might have to insert. Plus I couldn't stand the adult actors being the same and 
having to react to new actors playing the kids - it negates all three of the 
first films in some way. But that's just me ;-)
