Cassy: 

That's only logical. They have 18 year olds play 15
y.o. teenagers (main trio), Oliver Wood was like 8
years older than his character, Tom Riddle - more than
ten, Moaning Myrtle is in her 40s as well and she's a
16 year old ghost. Seems, like that there's a trend,
isn't it? Though why they make this kind of casting
decisions remains a mystery for me.
