Tom Felton's adolescence was anything but ordinary. As a child actor, his early rise to fame in beloved films like The Borrowers catapulted him into the limelight, but nothing could have prepared him for what was to come after he landed the iconic role of Draco Malfoy, the bleached blonde villain of the Harry Potter movies. For the next ten years, he was at the center of a huge pop culture phenomenon, and yet, in between filming, he would go back to being a normal teenager trying to fit into a normal school.
Speaking with great candor and his signature humor, Tom shares his experience growing up as part of the wizarding world while also navigating the muggle world. He tells stories from his early days in the business, like his first acting gig where he was mistaken for fellow blonde child actor Macaulay Culkin, and his Harry Potter audition where, in a very Draco-like move, he fudged how well he knew the books the series was based on (not at all). He reflects on his experiences working with cinematic greats such as Alan Rickman, Sir Michael Gambon, Dame Maggie Smith, and Ralph Fiennes (including that awkward Voldemort hug). And, perhaps most poignantly, he discusses the lasting relationships he made over that decade of filming, including with Emma Watson, who started out as a pesky nine-year-old whom he mocked for not knowing what a boom mic was but who soon grew into one of his dearest friends. Then, of course, there are the highs and lows of fame and navigating life after such a momentous and life-changing experience.
They would often go out to the set that housed the Astronomy Tower to enjoy a "breath of fresh air," as Gambon liked to call it. There, among the painters, masons, carpenters, and sparks, Dumbledore and Felton would sneak in a cigarette together. Felton recounts how Gambon would magically produce a cigarette from his beard, and they would take a break from the hustle and bustle of the production.
From a young tenant to a wizard, Tom Felton's childhood was anything but ordinary. His swift rise to fame propelled him into the spotlight when he was just twelve years old, as he secured the iconic role of Draco Malfoy in the Harry Potter films. With candor and his characteristic humor, Tom shares his experience of growing up on screen as a member of the magical world, discussing his journey to fame, the realities of filming these movies, and the lasting friendships he forged over the ten-year span of the saga, as well as the ups and downs of fame and navigating adulthood after the filming concluded.
Get ready to meet a real-life wizard, as Tom Felton's Beyond the Wand offers an entertaining, funny, and poignant must-read for any Harry Potter fan, providing a backstage pass into his life on and off the big screen.
