Right. But that is for one movie or multiple movies with different characters. Matthew Broderick sold me on Ferris Bueller even though I knew he wasn't a high schooler. But watching an 11 year old play an 11 year old gives me a point of reference, especially if he is a 12 year old playing a 12 year old in the next movie. It might work but chances are that one of those kids won't fit the look of their character's age by the seventh film. I would rather have them look older than to change actors, though.

I'm wondering what they'll do with a 60+ year old Indiana Jones (if it ever happens)?
