Tom Felton discusses working on the “Deathly Hallows” Epilogue in new on set interview

In a new interview with the Phillippine Daily Inquirer, Tom was able to give a few details concerning his work in the epilogue portion of “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part II” including what it was like being confronted with his character’s future son. The short article also includes interviews with co-stars Rupert Grint and Robbie Coltrane and co-Producer David Barron. You can check out their interviews here at the source.

 

Like Rupert, who had scenes with a boy actor who plays his child (“The kid looks just like me!”), Tom Felton also acted with a youngster who portrays his offspring. “It was bizarre, nerve-wracking and poignant at the same time, because it reminded me of how I began,” pointed out Tom, who is as nice in person as he is evil as Draco Malfoy. Some “Harry Potter” buffs are known to be rabid, but one of Tom’s followers takes the cake. This fan actually changed his name to Lucius Malfoy, built a house similar to the Malfoy Manor described in JK Rowling’s novels, and even asked Tom’s mom if he could adopt him. “Luckily, Mom turned it down,” Tom quipped.

Craig Brewer, Director of the Footloose remake, responds to Tom Felton fans’ #FootlooseFelton campaign

As you probably read here on Feltbeats.com, a group of Tom Felton fans have started a campaign to get Tom Felton cast as Ren in the new remake of Footloose. We even created a Twitter contest where fans could tweet their best reasons why Tom should be in the film. We got some GREAT responses, and we hope to feature them on the site in the next day or so – including announcing the winners!

And the campaign is really starting to pick up steam! Firstly, there has been some coverage in the blogs, and the Twitter hashtag has been repeated many hundreds of times across the web!

The director of the upcoming Footloose remake, Craig Brewer – who is currently scouting Georgia for Footloose filming locations – has noticed the campaign and remarked on his own Twitter account:

Attention all @TomFelton fans that have tweeted me in the campaign to cast Tom Felton as Ren in Footloose! I hear you. Y’all are true fans.

So, let’s hope this get some wheels rolling in our campaign! =)

PS Contest tweets are being reviewed and winners will be announced in a day or so! Thanks everyone for the HUGE participation!

Tweet #FootlooseFelton and win a prize!

For fun, a group of us Tom Felton fans have been pushing the idea that Tom Felton is perfect for the upcoming musical re-make of “Footloose.” According to news accounts, the producers are currently searching for a new leading man. Look no further: Tom can already sing, he can act (of course!) and he would bring his world-wide fan base behind the movie instantly.

But of course there is much more. Tom has that ‘attitude’ and edgy style that is perfect for the part of Ren.

So we want to create a great new contest to help spread the word that Tom would be great for this movie!

The BEST tweets (best reasons, funniest, most clever, etc.) will all win prizes!

First Place: A copy of “The Borrowers” DVD, a Tom Felton keychain and a Tom Felton lanyard.

Second and Third Place: A copy of “The Borrowers” DVD starring Tom Felton.

(Thanks to lovely Feltbeats admin, @bserlori for the prizes.)

So here are the details:

For the full day today, please tweet your best tweets to straight to Footloose director Craig Brewer at @mybrewtube and tell him your best reason why Tom should be in Footloose. You MUST include the #FootlooseFelton hashtag (that’s how we will track the tweets and pick the winners!). Craig doesn’t know we’re doing this, so keep that in mind (be specific in your tweets!).

For example:

@mybrewtube I would love to see @TomFelton cast in Footloose because I want to hear his lovely voice on big movie speakers! #FootlooseFelton

Thanks, and good luck! Tweet us at @feltbeats if you have any questions!

Tom Felton featured in Nylon magazine’s “New Hollywood” edition

With a really big, huge thanks to our friends at RupertGrint.net, we now have a scan of Tom’s feature in Nylon magazine, including a new photo and a nice interview. Tom was one of several actors selected by Nylon magazine for their “Young Hollywood” feature.

In the interview, Tom discusses his hair color (and glasses!) while filming his new movie, “Apparition,” his fame, and the impact that Harry Potter and specifically JK Rowling have had on his life.

Click for full version:

Age: 22
Surrey, England

The thing about being a bad, bad man on film is that people tend to believe you’re a bad, bad man in real life. But Tom Felton isn’t anything like Harry Potter’s nemesis, Draco Malfoy – something he’s hoping his next movie, The Apparition, will prove.

If you change my hair color and pull glasses on me, I don’t even recognize myself. The first three days after I arrived in Berlin for Apparition (with Ashley Greene and Sebestian Stan), I had the blond Draco Malfoy hair, and I kept getting asked for autographs. Then they dyed it and nobody ever recognized me.

I got booed off the stage at a children’s awards show. But I’ve always said, if I manage to convince someone that I’m an evil little bastard, I must be doing something right.

Harry Potter is the most powerful catalyst ever. If there’s someone you want to get in with, the first question is, Do they have kids? Yes? Brilliant. Tell them I’ll get Daniel Radcliffe ’round their house.

I wrote to JK Rowling, thanking her. Not only for the great stories and for bringing literacy back single-handedly, but she gave me a lot more than that. I’ve met a lot of friends for life and met my girlfriend on that set.

I don’t think you ever think that you’ve made it. I don’t think Rob Pattinson even thinks that. It’s not all about what happens in a year, it’s about what happens in hopefully in 10, 20, or 30 years.

I write songs for fun. There are a lot of hours as an actor when you’re not doing anything, so my guitar dwindles my time away pretty productively. If I weren’t an actor, I’d be a struggling musician. Sounds poetic, doesn’t it? FB

Thanks again VERY much to RupertGrint.net!

Tom Felton teams up with Wearside school

Members of the Broadway Primary School Film Club watch a live link-up with Harry Potter star Tom Felton, who plays Draco Malfoy.

Excited young film fans have come face to face with one of the wizarding world’s biggest stars.
Pupils at Broadway Junior School were thrilled to be given the chance to quiz Harry Potter star Tom Felton, who plays the hero’s nemesis Draco Malfoy in the epic movies.

Members of the Wearside school’s film club were chosen to take part in the national after-school group Filmclub’s first ever live webcast.

Teacher Audrey Ferry, who runs the club at the Springwell Road school, said: “The youngsters were very excited about the Filmclub webcast and came up with all sorts of interesting questions for Tom.

“To communicate with such a well-known actor was a great opportunity for all of us.”

The webcast, the first for Filmclub, was arranged as part of the initiative’s Close Encounters programme, which lets school children interact with film industry professionals.

Tom, 22, has been acting professionally since he was 10, when he starred as Peagreen Clock in Peter Hewitt’s fantastical tale The Borrowers.

He then played the son of Jodie Foster’s character in the Academy Award nominated film, Anna and the King, before being cast in the role of Draco Malfoy at 11, which was to make him a household name as Harry Potter’s arch-rival.

His character will hit the big screen again in October this year with the release of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part One.

Tom, who became a supporter of Filmclub when he presented an award to a filmclubber at the Young Film Critics Awards last year, was asked a number of questions by the Broadway Junior School youngsters about his adventures in the wizarding world and his own personal favourite films.
