In an appearance on the Happy Sad Confused podcast, Tom Felton opened up about connecting with HBO's new Draco Malfoy.
Tom Felton, who portrayed Draco Malfoy across all eight Harry Potter films and is currently reprising the role in Broadway's Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, confirmed in an appearance on Josh Horowitz's Happy Sad Confused podcast that he reached out to Lox Pratt — the 14-year-old actor cast as Draco in HBO's upcoming series. Felton said he shared his contact details with both Lox and his parents, describing the gesture as something he felt was "really important." He acknowledged that the young actors are in a fundamentally different position to his own: rather than building something from scratch, they bear the weight of an already-beloved legacy.
