Overview
- Felton confirmed Friday on the Happy Sad Confused podcast that he contacted 14-year-old Lox Pratt and shared his phone number and address with Pratt and his parents.
- He said he would not prescribe advice and was simply available for encouragement, joking that Pratt should take lots of photos and, if he can, snag a prop.
- Daniel Radcliffe and Rupert Grint have also reached out to their successors, with Radcliffe writing to Dominic McLaughlin and Grint sending a note to Alastair Stout.
- HBO’s adaptation released its first trailer earlier this week and is slated for a Christmas 2026 debut, with each of J.K. Rowling’s books planned as its own season.
- Felton contrasted today’s social-media glare with the pre-smartphone film era he started in and said that reality makes steady moral support for the young cast more important.
