Tom Felton shares hilarious, NSFW Alan Rickman anecdote

Overlook wizards and dementors and quidditch. Actor Tom Felton, who performed Draco Malfoy within the Harry Potter collection, has revealed what could be the most magical behind-the-scenes tidbit of all: when Alan Rickman cursed at him for flubbing a take.

Tom Felton revealed on Instagram that on the set of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, he ran afoul of none aside from Snape. Throughout one take, Felton by chance stepped on Rickman’s Snape cloak, blowing the shot. “Ultimately, I used to be instructed in no unsure phrases by Alan Rickman: ‘Don’t step on my fucking cloak’…[I] form of giggled. Demise eaters and I checked out one another and thought, ‘Is he joking?’ It shortly grew to become obvious: he’s completely not joking.” Think about seeking to Lord Voldemort’s minions for consoling–that’s how scary Alan Rickman could possibly be on set.

Apparently, director David Yates requested Tom Felton transfer in a bit nearer for the following take, evidently simply nice with Draco Malfoy being murdered by Snape. Nonetheless, it was one other unnamed solid member that stepped on it this time.

Tom Felton has beforehand stated that Alan Rickman was each “terrifying in probably the most nice approach” but “very, very form.”

Alan Rickman, whose diaries had been lately made obtainable, didn’t point out a lot of his co-star there, however did briefly word he was beginning a brand new “working relationship” with Tom Felton. Hey, each relationship has its bumps.

Contemplating a number of the controversy surrounding J.Okay. Rowling and the franchise, it’s good to listen to a narrative that provides a bit additional attraction to it. It could have made Tom Felton must run to the john on the time, however it’s the form of anecdote that retains the franchise human.

Tom Felton will doubtless have extra enjoyable tales in his upcoming memoir, “Past the Wand: The Magic and Mayhem of Rising Up a Wizard”, which is due out on October thirteenth.
