Tom Felton, known for his role as Draco Malfoy in the Harry Potter films, expressed his support for J.K. Rowling while speaking at the Tony Awards. Felton acknowledged he is not deeply affected by the controversy surrounding Rowling's gender-critical views, stating his gratitude for the joy she brought to diverse generations through Harry Potter. This stands in contrast to his co-stars, who have distanced themselves from Rowling since her controversial statements began in 2020, indicating a divide in their public support for the author.
I have not seen anything bring the world together more than Potter. She's responsible for that, so I'm incredibly grateful.
I can't say it impacts me, I'm not really that attuned to it.
No one has single-handedly done more for bringing joy to so many different generations.
His attitude appears to be in contrast to those of his Potter franchise co-stars.
