Despite their on-screen animosity, Tom Felton has always been close with his co-star Emma Watson, describing their relationship as 'the best of friends.'
Tom Felton landed the life-changing role of Draco Malfoy in"Harry Potter" when he was 12 years old, then went on to play Harry's sneering nemesis in all eight films."We've always had a sort of strange love together," Felton told CBS News."Not in the romantic way that some people would like to think."
The actor opened up about this and a slew of other topics in his new memoir,"Beyond the Wand: The Magic and Mayhem of Growing Up a Wizard." After a decade of playing Draco, Felton moved to Los Angeles in 2012 where he was seduced by the L.A. lifestyle, and started to drink heavily. His friends and family tried to help by staging an intervention, but it was his lawyer's words that really stuck with him.
He agreed to go to rehab, then broke out one night and went to a nearby beach — where"a lot clicked." He realized he needed help, and was willing to accept that.
