I'm guessing if Dan left they would shut the fanchise down,
wait a couple years, and /try/ and restart with a whole new
cast. 

They could probably find a Dan/Harry look-alike, but what
are the odds that that person would be able to do the 
acting job as well. It would be a very difficult choice
for the studios. The next versions, assuming the original
cast is gone, could be very Americanized. Remember there 
were so early suggestions the Haley Joel Osment (Sixth 
Sense) play Harry. That might have so marketing value, but
I don't think it bodes well of the story.

As I mentioned in my other post, now that the kids are out
of school they can proceed through the films faster, they 
can have a shorter production schedule, which will mean 
more free time between films to pursue other projects.

Just a thought.
