University Press returns with another short and captivating biography of one of history’s most compelling Tom Felton. Tom Felton is one of the most iconic actors of the 21st century. He starred in British television commercials in the late 1990s. And, after landing several feature film roles, he played Louis T. Leonowens in the film Anna and the King (1999), starring Jodie Foster. All this was well and good. But in 1999, Felton shot to international stardom. Auditions were held for Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone, Felton was cast as the insolent Draco Malfoy, and the rest is history. For anyone who’s waited in a Harry Potter line, dreamt of attending Hogwarts, or debated the relative merits of Gryffindor versus Slytherin, this short biography of Tom Felton is a must-read, for it tells the intensely human story of a truly remarkable actor who is changing the world in a way that no one else can.
