It’s just a bit like stepping back into time.
Feltons not the only one whos nostalgic for Hogwarts.
We didn’t expect it to just expand, expand, expand, he says.
Now there are three or four or five generations of Potterheads that all are equally enthusiastic.
Earlier, you mentioned bringing home Slytherin swag from the shop.
Was there anything you kept from the set?
I think I may have pinched one of Draco’s ties.
The wands, broomsticks and everything was kept more or less in a vault.
As soon as they said, Cut!
You played Draco, whos famously a Slytherin.
But have you ever taken a Hogwarts House quiz yourself?
Of course, I was very nervous.
But miraculously, I got Slytherin.
Tell me about your favorite or most heartwarming fan encounters.
One of my favorite ones was last time I was at the London Studio Tour.
That also makes me curious if you ever had any embarrassing moments with fans.
I’ve been quite lucky other than having Stop being mean to Harry!
I haven’t yet really [rewatched it].
They’re always on at Christmas, though.
My friends send me videos of my younger self; they’re taking the mickey.
We had wires wrapped around us, doing spells.
Do you still keep in touch with the Harry Potter cast?
We’re all friends.
At least I am with everyone.
We speak quite regularly.
I golf with the Weasley twins [James and Oliver Phelps].
We’re all growing up.
Rupert [Grint] has his little one now, so it’s fun to meet her.
Jason Isaacs, who played your on-screen dad, Lucius Malfoy, was just inThe White Lotus.
Have you watched it?
Actually, I finished it yesterday.
What did you think?
The last time I saw him was a week or two before he went to Thailand to shoot it.
He was excited, as was I.
It was cool to see him in something different.
Very un-Malfoy-esque, gorgeous tan and no blond hair.
Yes, it’s a muggle version.
But yeah, I thought he was brilliant.
Speaking of HBO, theyre rebootingHarry Potteras a TV series.
What are your thoughts on that?
I think it’s fantastic.
What advice would you give the new kid?
Take pictures, steal more props.
I’m joking, but I’m sure whoever they pick will be the one down for the job.
So, I will definitely be a background extra at the very least.
At some point, I’ll wedge my way in there, if I can.
Some fans would like to see you return as Lucius Malfoy.
That’s a cool idea.
Yeah, I’m not opposed to that at all.
Any chance to be part of the Wizarding World is a good one.
