Tom Felton of “Harry Potter” Fame Talks Dancing with the Stars
Draco Malfoy and Neville Longbottom go dancing?? I would be SO THERE FOR THAT. 🙂 If the producers are trying to go bigger, these two might be the way to go…not as big as Harry, Ron or Hermione, but dang it would be an improvement. Tom Felton (Draco) and Matthew Lewis (Neville) are both quite successful post-Potter and I don’t know that the show would ever REALLY be able to get them, but apparently Tom had something to say about it during a recent fan convention.
“[@Evy_Lynch] did great [on #DWTS], didn’t she? She was trying to convince me to do it the other day. I would love to see @Mattdavelewis do it. We should start a campaign right away.” –@TomFelton ✨ #LeakyCon

Please note, those of you who take nuggets and run with them – this is neither a “rumor” nor (probably) a serious campaign by either guy. It was probably a JOKE. Neither one probably has to ever work again, just based off Potter – but why not do it for fun guys?? Pweease?? Let’s campaign! For those non-Potterheads, you can read up on Matthew Lewis (grew up gorgeous) and Tom Felton (good musician!) at the links.

What a gentleman! I had so much fun interviewing @TomFelton for the @leakycon main stage. We also started a @Mattdavelewis DWTS campaign and planned a future meeting between him and @LaurenLopez1. Productive! ???????? pic.twitter.com/k6CTbF5zlx

I think Tom would be absolutely hilarious, he seems like a prankster type, and Matt seems like such a gentle giant that I couldn’t see him with anyone but Lindsay. But if the way things planned out for Evanna last year I would not be surprised if we see another Potterverse actor in the future. However I would personally want Emma Watson, Gary Oldman (Sirius), Ralph Fiennes (Voldemort), or Emma Thompson (Professor Trelawney). Also isnt little Julianne Hough q background character in the first HP movie? ????
@ Nick Julianne is a background character in the Quidditch scene cheering for Gryffindor! Derek is in either the first or second movie walking in the background as a Ravenclaw (the movie’s production nailed their houses IMO…Lol!). Mark was also in a scene in one of the movies but he’s hard to find. I think their performing arts school had the students as extras and that’s how they got in.
I would love to see either Tom or Matthew on! I also love the Phelps twins who played Fred and George and we still haven’t seen siblings compete on the celeb side yet, have we?
Derek, Julianne and Mark were in the whole movie as background, I believe, but the scenes Julia mentioned are where you can actually pick them out.
Julianne is a Gryffindor in the Quidditch scene and she’s also in a deleted scene. In the scene where Hermione enters the Great Hall where Harry and Ron are playing chess, Derek is the Ravenclaw carrying an owl in a cage behind Hermione. I’m always trying to find Mark but I can never figure out where he is in the Sorting Hat scene!
Tom Felton would be so fun, I would totally geek out if another Harry Potter actor did DWTS! I freaked when Evanna was confirmed last year and just loved her and Keo together 🙂
Mandy, please read all the comments before commenting. This has already been said.
Sorry Heidi! I was intending to explain where exactly in the movie they appeared, I’ll try to not repeat comments already made.
