In a recent interview with The Sun, Tom Felton revealed that he wated the Potter cast to all get a lightening bolt tattoo.  For those Lord of the Rings fans out there, you will know that the whole Fellowship got matching tattoos after they finished filming the trilogy.  Read some snippets from the interview below.

The 22-year-old said: “It’s crazy being back on the shelf. I forgot all about that. The last time I auditioned I was about 12. It was a very unusual situation we were all in. For the past ten years we have known every year that we were coming back to do the next film. I’ve just filmed my last scenes. They thanked us for our service, gave us a round of applause and told us we were dismissed. It was sad and very weird.”

Tom tried to encourage his Potter pals to take a drastic step to immortalise their time in the films, just as the stars of the Lord Of The Rings trilogy did when they had special tattoos done to remember their time on set [I had written that above here before I even read the article! Ha ha]. He said: “I wasn’t supposed to say anything, but we’ve all got lightning bolts on our ar*es. No, I’m joking. But I did try and talk them into it. I thought it was a nice idea. Maybe not on the ar*e – but a little something. We talked about it but all wimped out.”

He said: “No one knows what is going to happen. It’s pretty exciting – but nerve-racking. “I’ve never had any professional acting teaching but I’ve learnt from top actors. We did scenes the other day with Ralph Fiennes, Alan Rickman and Jason Isaacs. Doing the films has been like ten years of lessons. But I am sure there are equally exciting things ahead. We’re going to have a big wrap party. It’s going to be off the scale – I’m expecting all sorts.”Tom said: “We are all great pals. We’ve shared a common experience. Emma is doing her own thing. She has dived into her education. She’s a smart girl with her head screwed on. Rupert is pretty solemn. He’s in his own groove. But we all love him. The Weasley twins are jokers through and through. If you fall asleep, one of them will slap you round the face while the other records it on their phone. And Matthew is the most down to earth.”

Tom said: “Daniel is very witty, he’s the young Stephen Fry. He always has a book in hand and is full of anecdotes. He can do whatever he wants – he is so driven. When he is not filming he is in acting and voice classes. He loved doing Broadway and showed a lot of people he wants to take his acting career seriously. Daniel is a good friend of mine. He is very inspiring to me.” It is clear that charming Tom is very likable and popular with his young chums. But on screen he has nailed the role of the bully and won Best Villain at the MTV Movie Awards in Los Angeles earlier this month.

He revealed: “I’ve had lots of hate mail. It says stuff like, ‘Leave Harry Potter alone you p***k’. Or ‘What’s Harry ever done to you? You sh*thead’. I get a pretty negative reaction from kids in the street. They are always hugging Dan, kissing Emma then running away from me. A lot of them think it’s real – I take it as a compliment.”
