Harry Melling has shed his 'Harry Potter' persona to become one of the most interesting character actors working today.
The Harry Potter franchise was more than just a game-changing box office success that signified the resurgence of both fantasy films and young adult novel adaptations. It was a global phenomenon in which a portion of the audience got to grow up with characters that they knew and loved for a decade; few film sagas in history have generated such emotional responses to the films, the characters, and the respective actors who portrayed them.
Harry Melling Took Some Risks After 'Harry Potter' As Melling learned from his Harry Potter experience, being just a small part of a larger project can teach you valuable skills about the crafts required to succeed in the industry. Immediately after the last few Harry Potter films, Melling gave smaller, largely expositional performances in two masterful period dramas from great directors with James Gray’s The Lost City of Z and Alfonso Gomez-Rejon’s The Current War.
Showing His Range Melling has shown an impressive ability to go from being incredibly charismatic to wildly unhinged. There’s a patience to the way that he constructs his character arcs that is most certainly derived from the years he spent as Dudley. His performance in the hit Netflix miniseries The Queen’s Gambit took many viewers by surprise. Initially, his character Harry Beltik is an experienced chess player who doesn’t see Beth as a serious threat until she beats him.
