Yeah, I didn't mean that as an analogy. Just pointing out that changing the main actor would considerably hurt a franchise regardless.
Andrew Garfield's Spider-Man is terribly broken not only because of the recasting, but the supposedly new reboot looked the same, with similar costumes, virtually the same origin story and direction, even the same villain, just with different actors.
Which is amusingly the other way around of what's happened to Burton's Batman franchise. That one has a sequel that supposedly in the same universe and act as a continuation but looked totally different, felt different with different actors and direction.
Both approach didn't work.
