About this deal

It almost feels like Tom was too self obsessed to learn anything about these awesome people or to learn something from them. Though her work was far from the Broadway shows she dreamed about, it eventually became all about the nightly hustle to simply survive. i also really enjoyed hearing more about his childhood and what it was like to be on the harry potter set!

i grew up with the harry potter books and films, and beyond the wand is like catching up with a childhood friend. Celebrating the publication of his new book Beyond The Wand– a magical coming-of-age memoir – Tom will bring the audience behind the scenes of the iconic films and reveal what it was really like playing Harry Potter's wizarding nemesis, Draco Malfoy. He reflects on his experiences working with cinematic greats such as Alan Rickman, Sir Michael Gambon, Dame Maggie Smith, and Ralph Fiennes (including that awkward Voldemort hug).

And yeah, I realized pretty fast that Tom Felton was nothing like Draco Malfoy, but still, I admired him for portraying Draco so well.

Take a trip into the magical world of Harry Potter with one of the films’ biggest stars, Tom Felton. And do you think the two of you will ever act alongside each other again, if the right opportunity arose? I really loved that Felton hit the nail on the head when it comes to talking about mental health, and especially when it comes to talking about mental health in men.I've had these stories in my head for decades, and it's been such a great experience for me to spend time putting quill to parchment. But I'm more than comfortable to share my vulnerability in the hope that other people that are going through similar things won't feel so confined to have to keep them to themselves. And then, that time, when his arms are open, I thought, "There's no bloody way he's trying to hug me.

Like many former child actors, Felton struggled with addiction as an adult, and the back third about rehab and recovery is compelling. So, yeah, there were lots of times where I probably should have been tucked up in bed, and actually, I was fishing with my brother. He mentions almost everyone noteworthy in his book, but it’s all just censored and sugar coated empty compliments with zero substance. Most of this memoir felt like 1 star until the last couple of chapters, which is when it finally got real, and I appreciate his honesty and vulnerability around his stories and message on mental health.Tom details his more mischievous, ornery and occasionally disruptive ways as a child actor and adult as well. I'm not going to rate someones story about themselves, but this needed a good edit and also some deep introspection as to what and why Felton wanted us to get from this. It’s always fascinating to see what happened behind the scenes and this offers some very nice tidbits, as well insight into Tom and how his life was before, during, and after the Potter phenomenon. My dog and my family and friends keep me far too busy to go into exactly what people have said or not said. Tom Felton’s Beyond the Wand is an entertaining, funny, and poignant must-read for any Harry Potter fan.
