I dunno. The Harry Potter movies had to switch Dumbledores because Richard Harris died.

Richard Harris WAS Dumbledore, while the new one (I can't remember his name off-hand) just doesn't do it for me. It seemed like Harris "got it" far better.

I hate to be the one to break it to you, but the "new" Dumbledore was McKellan. :-)

Michael Gambon.

He's good, and I think an okay replacement. But he's not the same as Richard Harris.
