No, Star Wars and HP are certainly different but I think Dan will
have to make an effort at some point to break away from Harry. I
know he loves the theater and that's a wonderful place to develop
your craft and go somewhat underground so I would be willing to bet
he pursues stage roles once his committment to HP ends. I am sure
this has been discussed ad nauseum, but I am hoping he stays with
the series through what ever films they make. The movies have
suspended so many major plot points that I see no problem with him
continuuing as a rather larger-than-described Harry. Adults won't
mind and children may not be able to see many more of these films. I
truly wonder how that will be dealt with. It could force the films
to go further in order to attract those all important 14 year old
boys. I hope we don't see it slip into serious PG-13 or even R rated
territory...
