I have  recently read a few articles in which various actors/entities 
have  commented on how Dan will find it very difficult to get work 
after HP --  even though I can understand why people would say this, 
I've honestly  never been able to see the resemblance between him and 
Mark Hamill.   In fact, I don't think i would even put the HP movies 
in the same basket  as the Star Wars films in terms of impact on 
society -- which might have  been why Mark Hamill had such a hard 
time trying to seperate himself from  the role. >>

You know it happens more with kids in TV roles than movies, & that is
a concern some actors feel could ruin their careers.  Recently, they have
had a hard time casting the role for Superman, because certain actors
were worried that they would turn out like Christopher Reed, who did have
trouble getting roles after the original Superman movies. But look at 
Toby Maquire, who plays Spiderman, I think his career has bloosom.  It
bothers me that people label children before they have had a chance to
prove themselves. I hope that Dan proves them all wrong, because like you,
I think he has what it takes to succeed. Also, Dan has other passions
besides acting.  We may see him become another Rob Reiner (Meathead from
"All In The Family") or Ron Howard (Happy Days, etc), or he could become
a writer or more into his music.... He is so young, has his whole life in
front of him, and he has money.  He could open his own production company!
LOL!
Anyway, he could have a hard time, but he could decide to take a break
from acting for a while too. Refresh and come back strong.  I just wish 
people wouldn't label him or the other two while they are so young.  I
want all three of them to succeed!
