I will get downvoted into oblivion: This is ultimately a strange thing to do, though of course people who love the franchise and the films will like this too - I do appreciate why this is nice. But it’s clear that only a cringelord like Tom Felton would consistently do this - I think Jason Isaacs (Lucius Malfoy) is a bit more down to earth but perhaps he’s overly sentimental… You wouldn’t find Alan Rickman doing this! QED.
This is an odd comparison to make, Alan Rickman was an older experienced actor before harry potter, Tom Felton was a literal child that spend his entire puberty growing up while making if those movies. The sentiment is very different.
I understand what you mean thats its a bit cringe for our demographic but statistically he is the #1 most popular harry potter character with a very active fan group largely consisting of teen girls, is it so strange he sometimes trows them a bone while having an outing with an known actor friend? If he doesnt the paparatzi will no doubt.
What I actually don’t understand is how beyond that, its somehow news worthy with such an exaggerated title. I mean i do know why, clicks… still.
