So Mac C does have some serious resentment bubbling under the surface of his fictional abandonment issues: He got to play ONE ROLE in TWO MOVIES that he grew so identified with that he stood no chance of playing anything else ever again, like Elijah Wood or Daniel Radcliffe.

People were complaining about members of the Cast of Big Bang Theory asking millions of dollars per episode, but I think that they are also aware that they have grown so identified with their fictional personas that their acting careers are all but over.

Mac C’s other big problem is being a former child star. Very few manage the transition into adult acting roles. In his case, IMO, he was suited for one role, and one role only. And he outgrew it.
