Anne now:

Daniel Radcliffe is still in his teens.  He'll be twenty in July. 
Plus, imho, many twenty-somethings successfully portray teenagers.  I
think Dan and Rupert will be able to pull off playing HP and RW even
though they are now older than these roles.  After all, they have
grown up playing these roles; they can easily inhabit these
characters, even if, as you say, they are a bit older than the actual
characters in RL.

Also Emma Watson, according to  The Hollywood Reporter, is set to play
one of the title characters in the upcoming film "Napoleon and Betsy"


April 17, 2008 Emma Watson is attached to star in "Napoleon and
Betsy," a period drama being written and directed by Benjamin Ross.
