Life Style: Movie Magic Magazine has just released it’s latest issue featuring dozens of pages on Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. Included are features on Tom, Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, Rupert Grint, and Bonnie Wright.
The three page article on the life of Tom Felton includes information about his choir days, his music, his hopes to get out there and fish some more, and why he would love to continue acting.
Some notable quotes from Tom include:
On the comparison of filming and fishing…
“Patience is required heavily in fishing and much the same with the film set. Some days it doesn’t go as fast as you would have hoped or you would have expected. But it’s all about keeping the energy and not only being patient, but just enjoying every minute of it – because sometimes it can be quite easy to slump back if you have an hour or two to wait, and it’s important to make the most of the time with the cast and crew while you’re there.”
On fans confusing him with his character Draco…
“Very early on, some people took very seriously how I was making Harry’s life not pleasant at school and they would plead with me not to pick on him. They seem to associate me with something rather negative which I can only take as a compliment really, I suppose. … I tried to reasure them that nothing was real, and that me and Daniel [Harry] were quite good friends, but it didn’t work.”
And on his hopes for the future…
“I’d love to continue acting. … By the same token, I’m keeping all angles open, really. I’ve been intrigued to do other things. I mean, music has always been a passion of mine, and nature and so forth. I’m not really ruling anything out.”

Other articles feature the actors behind Tom Riddle (aka, Voldie-Mort), producer David Heyman, director David Yates, the designs behind the sets, and the fun and games the fans have at conventions. Also included is a sneak peek into the making of Deathly Hallows which features a lovely interview with Tom’s onscreen dad Jason Isaacs as he recounts begging author JK Rowling to “get me out of [Azkaban] prison.” Life Style: Movie Magic Magazine is available for purchase on news stands through the end of the summer.
I have three of Movie Magic one is about the Order of Phoenix the other two are about the Half-Blood Prince Oh and the fourth one this Film Fantasy is about Twilight I got it becaues Harry Potter was in it and what a nice pic of Draco oh could you tell me if I am missing one so I can cry about that ha ha. 😀
If there’s one thing I’m agreeing on, is that patience is everything. It brings far much more result than not having any wouldn’t. As well, it’s very sad to read than there are still people, confusing the real person with the character he is bringing to life on the screen, taking one for the other. To keep all angles open is very healthy, Tom. Bravo!
With Love,
Sam.
I think i’ll go buy it…. *runs to car*
Loved the scans! The picture of him playing soccer is WAY too hot! <3
