Do you remember Tom Felton’s film White Other ? It’s a short film from 2010 – written and directed by Dan Hartley – and Tom plays Ray Marsden in this film.

In the dead of night a troubled youth from an East London estate, Ray Marsden (Tom Felton – Harry Potter) stalks into a hospital ward demanding to see the patient. The attendant Nurse, Lynne McDermott (Imelda Staunton – Vera Drake / note from us: Umbridge in HP) is sceptical about Ray’s motives but gradually uncovers the truth about his violent past and in so doing makes a startling discovery that will change both of their lives forever.

So far you could only watch the film in the original version, but now the short film is also available in German.

USA Today released the first trailer for Tom Felton’s upcoming movie Risen. The bible movie will be released in US theaters on Friday, January 22, 2016
(we reported here).

…
Fiennes, 44, star of 1998’s best picture-winning Shakespeare in Love, is the fictional Clavius, who is assigned by Pontius Pilate (Peter Firth) to unravel the mystery of what happened to Jesus in the weeks after the crucifixion.

With his aide Lucius (Tom Felton), Clavius is tasked to dispel rumors of a risen Messiah and prevent a Jerusalem uprising.

When Jesus’ body disappears from a sealed tomb, Clavius interrogates followers of “The Nazarene” to find out what really happened.

“That’s where the detective work comes in,” says Fiennes. “This is an extraordinary story and well-known to everyone. But it takes us on this journey through the eyes of a nonbeliever.”
