 not very tall, not very attractive, and then his face was burned in a
fire, if I  recall correctly.  I think that was the main reason he got
so little work  (but I could have him confused with someone else). 

I think Hamil was actually in a car accident and his face was
disfigured.  He was cute in the first two movies but you can see he
looks odd in Return of the Jedi (didn't have a good plastic surgeon or
was the best they could do for him?).  I'm not sure what else may have
contributed to his difficulty in getting good roles but I think that
Dan's parents are deeply involved in managing his career, therefore
Dan will have a better chance of handling his fame in a positive way.


 Honestly?  How  many actors are worth the kind of money Dan is right
now?  Maybe a lot of  what we're hearing is sour grapes.  Just think
if he builds a serious  acting career on top of his Harry Potter
success.  There will be lots of  "green eyes" in the entertainment
industry, and I don't mean Harry's!   heehee  I honestly think Dan's
got the makings of a long-term career.   Hugh Grant better watch out! 
Dan's right on his coat-tails, and with a  huge built-in fanbase!
