They have. James doesn't look exactly like Harry. It would be a  
mistake IMO to have Dan do it.

I was just rewatching the beginning of PoA and I really don't know  
what people are worried about with Dan's acting in capslock mode. If  
you ask me, there is the precursor of CAPSLOCK!Harry right there and  
he's fine.
