Tom Felton is confirmed to star in the upcoming miniseries ‘Labyrinth’. No, not like the one with David Bowie. It is a 4 hour long adaptation of Kate Mosse’s book Labyrinth, set in the Carcassonne/Aude Cathar region in the south of France. According to WorldScreen, Tom will play Raymond-Roger de Trencavel, the Viscount of Carcassonne, who died in 1209 trying to protect his Cathar citizens from genocide.

“Joining our already assembled brilliant cast, are the spectacular Tom Felton and Tony Curran,” said Tim Halkin, the managing director of Tandem Communications and an executive producer. “I’m particularly pleased to have found an extraordinarily talented young actor who is the same age as that of the historical figure of Viscount Trencavel. Trencavel was an amazing young man, wise beyond his years and I’m sure that Tom Felton will do his memory and his legacy justice.”

“Tony Curran and Tom Felton are some of the finest actors in the U.K. today,” added Liza Marshall, the head of Scott Free London and an executive producer. “They have broken out and made names for themselves internationally and we are proud to count them amongst our wonderful cast.”
