Called the bible of the showbiz industry, Daily Variety magazine (a daily print product created by Variety.com) provides entertainment insiders with vital information on a daily basis.

In today’s issue, they highlight Tom’s new role in “Apparition” and give some information about the film.

Keep watching Feltbeats.com for more information on this exciting new opportunity for Tom. We hope to reveal more information – maybe even an answer to the ever-important question you’re all clamoring for: “What will be his hair color?” – very soon!

UPDATE: According to @Majnona243, who says she has actually read the script (and says it was “awesome!”), Tom’s character is not Ashley’s boyfriend, but rather “her boyfriend’s friend Patrick. He’s kind of this junkie for supernatural stuff. It’s a very nice role.”

When pressed, Majnona243 reveals a tiny bit more:, “I don’t wanna give away stuff but I can tell you he’s in many cool parts.. he is actually among few who are part of the “experiment.” It’s very cool and different from Draco’s character. You’re all gonna love it!”

Thanks Majnona243! Please keep us updated! =)
