Tom Felton Is Down For Fans Giving Draco Malfoy a 'Slight' Redemption Arc

Tom Felton thinks it’s ‘cool’ that ‘Harry Potter’ fans are giving Draco Malfoy a ‘slight’ redemption arc

Draco Malfoy is not the hero of the Harry Potter franchise by any means, but Tom Felton thinks it’s “really cool” that his character is getting a “slight” redemption arc. “I do love the fact that people — I mean, obviously, he is slimy, he’s not exactly the most desirable character at times — but it’s nice to see,” Felton, 36, told Us Weekly exclusively while promoting his partnership with Kinder Joy, nothing that there are “so many different subtle arcs now that are being discovered” within the Harry Potter fandom. While Malfoy is canonically considered the antagonist to Harry Potter’s protagonist, fans — particularly on the #DracoTok corner of TikTok and in the fanfiction community — have come to the conclusion he might not be a villain.
