Tom Felton, known for his role as Draco Malfoy in the Harry Potter series, is preparing to return to the magical world through Broadway’s “Harry Potter and the Cursed Child.” However, his return comes at a time when the franchise’s creator, JK Rowling, continues to face criticism over her political statements.
According to Hindustan Times, the actor recently spoke with Variety’s Gordon Cox at this year’s Tony Awards about his upcoming role and the ongoing controversies surrounding Rowling. This isn’t the first time Felton has remarked on Rowling’s stance. The conversation inevitably turned to the author’s widely criticized statements regarding gender identity and trans rights.
