Tom Felton confused by Draco popularity

11th July 2011

(Cover) - EN Movies - Tom Felton is bemused that his character in the Harry Potter series is a fan favourite.

Tom has played Draco Malfoy, Harry Potter's arch nemesis, in all eight of the movies, including the soon-to-be-released final instalment, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2. Despite being one of the villains of the piece, Tom has an unlikely fan following.

"It's weird, I never quite know if it's a good thing or a bad thing that Draco is generally... a pleasantly accepted character," Tom told MTV. "I always find it weird when six-year-olds' parents say, 'You're his favourite character!' I'm always like, 'I'm not sure if I should be. I'm not sure that reflects your great parenting skills!"

While Tom Felton is trying to launch himself as a music star following his 2008 pop debut, with recent reports suggesting he wants to release a rap album, Tom has a busy summer ahead on the big screen. As well as the final Harry Potter movie, Tom has a part in Rise of the Planet of the Apes. (C) Cover Media
