No.Limberger responds:
It's an actor's job to understand all of the nuances of a particular
character in order to bring the character to life.  If a director has
an actor portray a character in such a way that it contradicts the
original material that defines the character, that, in my opinion,
is a sign of a bad movie.

>From what I have observed, the portrayals of the characters by
the various actors in all of the HP movies to date have been
very good and very accurate as far capturing the essence &
personality of the characters that JKR created.

As far as replacing a particular actor, that could be extremely
difficult to do when a number of scenes have already been
filmed.  This would require redoing any scenes that had been
completed along with all of the additional production costs.
