Tom Felton Net Worth $35 Million
There might occur the question: how rich is Tom Felton? Tom’s net worth is stated to be about $35 million. As Tom is only 27 years old there is definitely a bright future waiting for him, so there would be no surprise if Tom Felton’s net worth grew.
Thomas Andrew Felton, better know as Tom Felton, was born in 1987, in England. While still being very young Tom, was interested in music as well as in acting, and was a part of the school’s choir. His acting career began when he started appearing in the advertisements of “Commercial Union” and “Barclaycard” companies. Later, Tom got his first role in the movie called “The Borrowers”. In 1999 he had an opportunity to work with Jodie Foster, Bai Ling and Chow Yun-fat, as he was a part of the movie called “Anna and the King”. The popularity of this movie made Tom’s net worth grow considerably.
In 2001 Tom got the role which changed his life completely. When he became a part of the “Harry Potter” movies, there was no doubt that these movies would become very successful. Felton and other members of the cast, Emma Wattson, Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint and many others, soon became popular all around the world. Undoubtedly, this is the main source of Tom Felton’s net worth. As all Harry Potter movies were so successful, Tom became more and more famous and acclaimed as an actor.
In addition to the “Harry Potter” movies, Tom has also appeared in other projects. He acted in “Get Him to the Greek”, “The Apparition”, “In Secret” and others. The television shows in which Tom appeared include “Murder in the First”, “Home Farm Twins”, “Labyrinth” and others. All these appearances added a lot to Felton’s net worth.
All in all, we should admit that Tom Felton is one of the most successful contemporary actors. Although he is still very young, he already has achieved a lot and will probably achieve even more in the near future. Now Tom is recognized all over the world and although his character Draco Malfoy is a bad guy in the movies, Tom is really loved by all Harry Potter fans. If Tom acts in more successful movies, his net worth will surely become even higher. Let’s hope that this will really happen and that Felton’s fans will be able to enjoy more interesting movies with him.

It's a hard industry to have a long career regardless of what films you've been in but fingers crossed I can continue in it. Whether it's acting, directing or writing, I want to be involved in the film industry for the rest of my life.

I'll take my clothes off - whatever the job requires.

Jason Isaacs always looked after me very well. Alan Rickman, Michael Gambon, Helena Bonham Carter - they're all wonderful people and very helpful and inspiring. I bored Alan Rickman for hours about Robin Hood. It was one of my favorite films when I was younger and I asked how he did certain scenes. He was very patient and charming. It took me six years to work up the courage to ask him. Helena gave me advice about crying in a scene. She said tell your brain you're not allowed to cry and then it's more likely to happen. No one was difficult. You hear stories about actors who demand their coffee to be served at a certain temperature but on Harry Potter if you wanted a cup of tea you had to get it yourself.

So those of you that think filming is all glamor, you're so wrong! Really, only the premieres are the glitzy bits.

[on playing a bad guy in Harry Potter's film]: I think it's more fun, there are a lot of goodies in the film and not a lot of baddies, so I like to be in the baddie group.

I really tried out for the part of Harry Potter, but they ended up picking me for the part of the enemy of Harry. Actually it is really fun playing the bad kid because it just has so many interesting qualities to it. And Daniel Radcliffe and I get along really well off set so it's really fun filming.

In spite of what Draco is like, I really like school, and I miss it a lot when I'm filming. I've a fair idea what I want to do for my GCSEs, I will definitely be doing music.
