| | |  Tom Felton officially confirmed to star in mini-series 'Labyrinth'
It has been officially announced that actor Tom Felton's next acting project will be the four-hour mini-series Labyrinth, adapted from the book by Kate Mosse. Tim Halkin, the managing director of Tandem Communications and executive producer of the film, commented on Tom's casting. The film began production a week ago, on October 10, 2011, and will costar Tom's fellow Harry Potter alum John Hurt (Ollivander). Quote:
"Joining our already assembled brilliant cast, are the spectacular Tom Felton and Tony Curran," said Tim Halkin, the managing director of Tandem Communications and an executive producer. "I'm particularly pleased to have found an extraordinarily talented young actor who is the same age as that of the historical figure of Viscount Trencavel. Trencavel was an amazing young man, wise beyond his years and I'm sure that Tom Felton will do his memory and his legacy justice."
"Tony Curran and Tom Felton are some of the finest actors in the U.K. today," added Liza Marshall, the head of Scott Free London and an executive producer. "They have broken out and made names for themselves internationally and we are proud to count them amongst our wonderful cast."
 Actor Tom Felton, best known for his role as Harry Potter’s nemesis Draco Malfoy, has signed on to play a historical character in a four-hour adaptation of Kate Mosse's bestseller Labyrinth.
Felton will play Raymond-Roger de Trencavel, the Viscount of Carcassonne, who died in 1209 trying to protect his Cathar citizens from genocide. Tony Curran (The Pillars of the Earth, X-Men: First Class, The Adventures of Tintin) has also signed on. The miniseries adaptation of the 2006 international bestseller began principal photography on October 10 in Carcasonne in the Aude/Cathar Country in the south of France. Labyrinth is a treaty co-production between Germany and South Africa and is a Tandem Communications/Film Afrika co-production in association with Ridley Scott and Tony Scott's Scott Free Films.
We will have much more on this in the coming months; we are also inquiring on whether filming the mini-series will leave Tom unable to attend the Wizarding World of Harry Potter celebration in November, so stay tuned. UPDATE: New information on where the mini-series will be broadcast in 2012 was released, though at the moment no U.S. network has been chosen. Delivery is set for late summer 2012. Germany’s Sat.1, Channel Four in the U.K., France’s M6, Spain’s Quatro and ORF in Austria have pre-bought the show. NBC Universal Home Entertainment and Koch Media have certain U.S. home entertainment rights. So far, there is no U.S. broadcaster attached to the series.
