Two of my all-time favorite actors, Tom Felton and David Anders, made special appearances at MegaCon in Orlando, Florida over the weekend and one of our faithful readers Becca has all the details! Though she is not an avid viewer of the CW hit The Vampire Diaires, she checked out the panel featuring 30-year-old Anders who starred in Alias, Heroes, and Grey’s Anatomy before descending upon Mystic Falls, Virginia.
Becca mentioned the panel was really fun, David spoke about what a great time he had working with J.J. Abrams and about how his double-crossing character Julian Sark was supposed to get a spin-off. Sigh…since that is not going to happen, fans of the ABC fairy tale drama Once Upon A Time will be happy to hear his character Dr. Wales will be coming back for more episodes!
Anders also made a mention about a funny fan moment he will never forget.
“A fan once found the number to my parents house and called up to have a nice long chat with my mom who answered every single question, Anders recalled. “She’s just such a sweetheart that I don’t think she realized what happened!”
Tom Felton has become quite the staple in Orlando, Florida. He is often photographed visiting The Wizarding World of Harry Potter where he reminisces about his time at Hogwarts alongside Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, and Rupert Grint.
Nearly 600 fans welcomed him to the panel with whistles to the tune of the recognizable Harry Potter song before plowing him with questions like, “What was it like hugging Voldemort? (was it squishy?), to “are you typecast due to Draco being bleach blonde?”
Funny enough, Tom opened up about the infamous “hug” scene with co-star Ralph Fiennes and how it was totally unscripted and he mentioned how directors don’t even recognize him from his most famous role to date!
The hug wasn’t in the script and out of about 30 or so takes, Ralph Fiennes just reached over and hugged him, Becca recounted. He said the shock on his face in the scene was genuine because it was completely unexpected.” “As far as being typecast…Tom confesses directors don’t even realize he is the same guy who played the villanous Draco Malfoy in the Harry Potter series!
That must be why Tommy has been rockin’ a more brunette shade since wrapping on the highly popular series!
Big thank you to Becca for her fantastic photos and detailed quotes straight from the best panels at MegaCon! Make sure to follow this “Undercover GeekGirl” on Twitter via this link @rbfletcher and her blog here.
