Felton Tom: biography and career (photo)

Young, but early. That's how they talk about people like Tom Felton. Whether a joke, in the 28 years already to have the filmography numbering three ten pictures, many of which had the big box-office success. However, the glory did not spoil the young man, who, despite being born in London, calls himself a country boy and regrets that he had no childhood, although he managed to earn 3 million dollars before he came of age!

Early childhood

Tom was born in 1987 in the usual large family of the British family Sharon and Peter Felton and is the youngest of their four sons.

From an early age, the parents revealed the boy's vocal ability and love of dramatic art. At the age of 7 they sent their son to sing in the church choir, where he was noticed and invited to a professional children's collective. At the same time, Felton Tom was not particularly zealous in his studies and can not boast of a university diploma.

Carier start

Felton Tom began his acting career at the age of 10, but before that he already had shooting experience in advertising for television. His godmother in the movie was one little-known English actress, who was friendly with the boy's mother. It was she who advised to take him to the casting for the picture "Thieves". The smart guy was immediately approved for the role, and the film was nominated for the highest award of the British Film Academy.

Then followed another interesting work in the film "Anna and the King", where he played the governess's son of the children of King Siam.

Glory

By 2001, Tom Felton's filmography already totaled 5 paintings. However, the real glory to him came after he was invited to the film about the young wizard Harry Poter. According to Tom, he dreamed of playing the main character, but he had to work on the image of his opponent. After the release of the first picture on the students of the Hogwarts School, the boy woke up famous. But it was a negative glory and many young viewers suffered a negative attitude towards Draco Malfoy on Tom Felton. Be that as it may, the young man starred in 8 scenes about Harry Potter and earned millions on it.

Further career

In 2006, Tom Felton finally decided to get a university degree and chose a specialty related to commercial fishing. At the same time, he told reporters that he does not see himself in the future as an actor and is looking for something more reliable than the ethereal glory and love of the viewer. However, the young man soon changed his mind and again began participating in the casting.

The filmography of Tom Felton at the moment is quite extensive, especially if you consider that the boy is only 28 years old. Among the most interesting works can be mentioned films: "Escape from Vegas", where he played himself, "The Rise of the Planet of the Apes" and the historical series "Labyrinth".

Almost every year on the screens there is a picture with Tom Felton in the main or in the role of the second plan. The young man tries not to abandon the proposals of the directors and often makes flights from the UK to the US and vice versa.

Hobby

Felton Tom, certainly, is talented, and such people, as is known, aspire to prove themselves in the most different spheres. That's why nobody was surprised when in 2011, together with his friend and partner in the film "Harry Potter" starred in a photo shoot for the autumn-winter collection of the famous brand "Band of Outsiders".

In addition, as already mentioned, the boy was engaged in singing from a young age, and in 2008 he released his first album "Time well spent", which included 5 songs. A few months later, Tom recorded his second CD, "All I need", and his output was preceded by an advertising company that the actor himself organized and conducted in social networks and in Youtube.

Music and model career - this is only part of what is fond of Felton. Tom loves sports and he can often be found playing football, basketball, cricket and golf or roller-skating or swimming.
