SNIPPED here:
Jen here:
As much as so many would like to see Dan "do" his screen father, I
am willing to bet that's not considered. He's already got plenty on
his plate doing all that he does as "Harry." Stunts alone take up a
great deal of his time on the set. I'd personally rather see him
continue to grow as Harry, be able to play the full range of all
that Harry is, without putting any additional pressure on him. And I
know he looks like his parents, Harry that is, but I would still
rather see a separate actor be his dad, even at 15. Somehow having
Dan do both parts adds a "sideshow" aspect to the films.
As you say, Steve, just a few thoughts!

Jen also asks:
I have not studied the space time continuum of the WW, but as far as
JKR has said (and is my understanding), death is final. Is there
canon for crossing boundaries? Let me know.
