Tom Felton
spoke about Draco Malfoy's vulnerable nature, which J.K. Rowling had intended for the character, and how he portrayed the layered role in
Deathly Hallows in a new interview. Tom mentioned a specific scene shot for the film where Draco did want to help Harry - in Malfoy Manor after the trio are captured by the Snatchers - and the decision he may or may not end up making, depending on the edit job for the final cut of the feature.
Quote:
"From my character's point of view, a lot has been left to interpretation. Even when we did takes, we did three or four different versions, so I'm intrigued which ones they're actually going to use."
"[There is] one take where you want to help Harry. The books, I think, kind of left it up to the interpretation of the reader, really, so one way you internally want to help him, the other side where you're just confused, so I'm intrigued to see which bits David [Yates] cuts out of it."
Quote:
"Jo always talked about him as being vulnerable," Felton said. "Most bullies are. They're actually hugely insecure and have their own problems, and he has the worst parental guidance of any child I've ever seen in my life."
Quote:
"Daniel and I talk about him as two sides of the coin. Harry has these great influences, even though his parents have passed. But Draco’s just … he’s damned if he does and damned if he doesn’t, really. He’s kind of stuck there. "
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows will be out November 19, 2010 and July 15, 2011.
