Tom Felton

Thomas Andrew Felton, better known as Tom Felton, was born in Kensington, London, on September 22, 1987. The youngest of four siblings, at the age of eight, he began his acting career following the suggestions of an actress friend of the family, who believed detect in the boy a special something that enabled him to do it. After appearing at a casting attended by more than 400 kids, he was chosen to star in an advertising campaign. His other recognized talent was music, and indeed he sang little Tom at the age of seven in the church choir. He even got an offer to join the Guildford Cathedral choir, but he ended up declining. That does not mean that he separated from the musical world, because with the passage of time he would create a record label, sixstrings,

His film debut came in 1997 with The Borrowers , a family film about tiny beings. Two years later he was Jodie Foster ‘s son in Siam, in Anne and the King , a film based on the true story of an English governess who teaches the rude King of Siam. With such baggage he embarked on the Potterian adventure in 2000, eleven years in which he has accompanied him as if he were the shadow of the character of Draco Malfoy, Harry Potter’s rival in the JK Rowling saga . The actor would grow with Draco from Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stonefor eleven years, producing such an identification of one and the other, that many come to believe that his straw-blonde hair is naturally like that, something false, the authentic color is light brown; he is also dating a Hogwarts girl, Jade Olivia, a walk-on. Despite what he sees on screen, Felton says he gets along great with Daniel Radcliffe , the actor who was cast as Potter, a role he also aspired to. The truth is that he comes up with a character with a cruel point, but also sadness, as if he were not satisfied with himself and put him on the side of “the bad guys”. And it brought him an MTV award.

Potter has practically demanded exclusive dedication from him, apart from his studies at school, and his numerous sports hobbies. But he has made some loose films in between, such as the discreet horror films The Disappeared (2008) and 13Hrs (2010). Much more interesting is his presence in The Rise of the Planet of the Apes (2011), where he once again shows that the roles of vulnerable villains come to his hair. His fondness for swimming will surely have helped him in the upcoming sports drama From the Rough , where he will star for the first time. Which will not make him give up terror, since he has an important presence in The Apparition. About to turn 24, the actor wants to give the viewer war, so he is not surprised that he has also signed up for a war film, Grace and Danger .
