The fan panel with Tom Felton that I’ll moderate at Emerald City Comicon has been set for 1:15 p.m. Sunday, April 1.

Felton is best known as the title character’s evil rival, Draco Malfoy, in the “Harry Potter” movies.

Last year I had the pleasure of interviewing actor John Noble from “Lord of the Rings” and “Fringe” at ECCC. I spent the first 15 minutes interviewing Noble on stage and then he took questions from the audience.

Like all of the young “Potter” actors we’ve seen Felton literally grow up on screen. He’s 24 now and eager to move his career beyond HP.

Felton got his big break as Jodie Foster’s son in the 1997 film “Anna and the King.” But immortal fame came when he was cast as Malfoy in the first HP film: “Harry Potter and the
Sorceror’s Stone.” He actually wanted and tried out for the part of Harry Potter but we know how that turned out.

Still, I don’t think Felton can complain. He’s been in all eight films and won Best Villain at the 2010 and 2011 MTV Movie
Awards.

Felton had a very small cameo as himself in “Get Him to the Greek” when Jonah Hill runs into him in a London club. He also starred in this year’s “Rise of the Planet of the Apes.” Again, he played a villainous character. His next film is the sports drama “From
The Rough.”
