Tom Felton has become an iconic figure through his work in theHarry Potterfranchise. Playing a character that basically created the morally gray bad boy trope, his performance as Draco Malfoy is still influential. Delivering an excellent, yet incomplete arc, the part that he played in the eight films was significant, to say the least.
Recently, the actor was asked about his favorite movie, and many would expect the answer to be the series he starred in for a huge chunk of his life. Unfortunately for fans, his answers were quite different. However, it did not stray too far away from his childhood and his iconic role.
Tom Felton’s Comfort Movie is NotHarry Potter
Tom Feltonrecently gave an interview withBrit, where he went into great detail about his personal and professional life. When the interview started, one of the first questions that the actor was asked was about what his comfort movie was.
While some would have expected the answer to be a film from the Daniel Radcliffe series, as is the case for many, it would seem that Felton finds comfort elsewhere.
“I thought it was very impactful”: Tom Felton Confirms His Most ‘Enjoyable’ Harry Potter Movie Was Never Deathly Hallows
“I wanna say something that Chris Columbus has done, like Home Alone is a very comforting film.”Felton stated.
Despite this, his answer was still closely linked to the franchise. He revealed that one of his biggest comfort films of all time isHome Alone. The iconic Christmas movie was directed by Chris Columbus, who was behindHarry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone,andHarry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.
Tom Felton Still Stayed Close to His Childhood
After talking about the Chris Columbus film, he went on to talk about two other projects that give him comfort. Interestingly enough, he mentioned the 1997 film,The Borrowers. Considering the film is a 90s classic for children who grew up at that time, this answer is not surprising. However, there is another reason why his answer is especially meaningful.
Not only did Felton star in the iconic film, but it has also been credited as his first-ever acting role. He finished by saying that the beloved series,The Simpsons,was also on his list.
“I mean, even The Borrowers, to be fair, was pretty cool. The Simpsons was a big one.”said Felton.

While the actor’s comfort movies are not from theHarry Potterfranchise,they are still closely linked to it and his childhood; with one film being connected to the series itself and the other being his first role ever.
