Christian Coulson, who played Tom Riddle in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets is now starring in the play ‘Everything You Touch‘ at the Rattlestick Playwrights Theater in New York City. A synopsis of the play is as follows:

Victor is a ruthless fashion designer in the 1970s at the top of his game. Esme, his glamorous protégé and muse, is pushed aside when an ordinary Southern woman inspires Victor to make his artistry accessible to the masses. A generation later, a woman grappling with a healthy dose of self-loathing must wrestle her own family demons to find her way through the world of fashion that won’t give a woman her size a second look. Skipping back and forth in time, Everything You Touch is a viciously funny look at the struggle to find an identity that’s more than skin deep.

Student tickets for the play are $16, and Under 30 tickets are $21. Regular tickets are $56, but right now you can use RIDDLEEYT30 to get them for $30.

• Tuesday–Saturday at 8pm
• Sunday at 3pm
• Dark Mondays and Saturday Matinees

In a new interview with Just Jared, Tom Felton talks about the super fan documentary he has been working on as well as being sorted into Gryffindor, Against the Sun and more!

Some questions on the documentary can be read below:

Could you tell us a about the super fan documentary you’re working on?

It’s an hour-long one-off that we’re doing with BBC and KR Films. It’s just kind of a chance for me to have a more in depth look at the world of super fans and these people that have followed franchises–kind of at the root of why Harry Potter was so successful. It had such an active fan base. It’s allowed people to be passionate about stuff that maybe they couldn’t be so open with in previous years. It’s kind of a look into that, it’s a road trip journey with me narrating.

What was your most memorable interview that you conducted?

We’re still editing, but there’s a costume element. This idea that getting into costume (Terminator, comic book characters) and thousands of people that come into convention centers are freed. So I had my little experience with that, which was a bit awkward but fun. We had a guy in Pittsburgh, who’s like the world’s biggest Harry Potter fan, he was head to toe in Potter paraphernalia as I answered the door, which was a bit of an experience.

Did any of your Harry Potter co-stars take part in your special?

Yeah, I interviewed Rupert [Grint], Daniel [Radcliffe], and J.K. Rowling, which is a huge honor to have those three talk so openly as they have done.

Tom Fletcher as well, many of you know as the lead singer of McFly or McBusted. He’s a huge Harry Potter fan. The documentary isn’t really supposed to be about Harry Potter, but it just so happens the people I’m talking to are related to that.

Do you know when and where fans will be able to watch it?

It will be on BBC 3, I’m hoping for sometime in April, May. But again, don’t quote me because we’re still cutting it up. And then after that, hopefully later on in the year, it’ll be put up on online. I’m really excited to see what people’s opinion is of it. It was a massive insight for me, going behind the ropes and seeing what people actually do to stand behind a railing at an event. You don’t really think about the three hours it took them to stand there and get the best spot. And there’s a whole bunch of stuff that goes with that.

Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts information below:

In Pottermore, you were sorted to Gryffindor. Could you tell us how you feel about that?

Devastated. Heartbroken. Yeah, I was really not happy. I was filming the end of the documentary and they were like, just tap on something on the laptop so it looks like you’re busy. So I was like, OK. And they opened up Pottermore, and I thought, you know what, let’s do this. In fact, I did try and answer the questions to try and get Slytherin as the answer. And I think the computer saw through my attempt to try. I saw J.K. actually the next day and said there must be a glitch in the system. She guarantees me the Sorting Hat is never wrong.

If Draco wasn’t a wizard, what would he be doing in the real world as his job?

A thief. Or some sort of shady back-end job. I don’t think he would be ever really good at working. Something definitely illegal.

What are your thoughts on the new Harry Potter book and have you heard anything?

I haven’t! I know they’re in production. I know [director] David Yates and [producer] David Heyman, and Jo (J.K. Rowling) are back together, which is kind of the old dream team that did it in the first place. It’s kind of amazing that they’re coming back. I’m trying to weave in a little cameo, background extra role for myself. I can be some crazy bum in the back of the pub or something like that. Yeah, it’s exciting. I know lots of people are eagerly awaiting this. I think that it’s great they’re not treading on the toes of things they’ve done previously, and although it is related, I don’t think there’s going to be anything we’ve seen before. There’s not going to be resurfaced old characters or something like that. Yeah, I’m looking forward to it!

In a new interview with Teen Vogue, Alfred Enoch talks about his life since living in LA and starring in one of the most popular shows on TV. We are so proud of Alfie and his role in ABC’s How to Get Away with Murder. He’s started some new hobbies.

“Hiking seems like such a dramatic turn of phrase, doesn’t it? Like, you set off with a backpack and go into the wilderness. But the hike up to Griffith Observatory is nice. The view is amazing.” Alfie wishes he had more time to “sample L.A. life.” Isn’t there some Hogwarts spell that lets you be in two places at once? He laughs. “See, that’s the problem. They kept all that under wraps.”

He also talks about keeping up his American accent even when he isn’t filming for the show. “[My girlfriend] finds it pretty strange,” he says. “But I don’t want to slip! It helps, doing it all the time. It means there’s no change of gear for me.”

Valentine’s Day is fast approaching, quite a few among us look to the great romances of film, TV and books for help when it comes to Valentine’s Day. A survey undertaken for Ladbrokes Bingo asked 2,000 people for their thoughts about favourite characters in fiction and their search for love.

To celebrate a long, complicated relationship between romance and fiction, we have created some fun Valentine’s cards based on some of the most iconic examples of love. Drawing inspiration from film favourites and TV megahits, we hope that these cards will help to make Valentine’s Day one to remember!

One of them is based on Harry Potter and has the phrase “Muggle Snuggle” along with Harry’s glasses and a scar within a heart. You can view all the Valentine’s on their website.

Along with the images, they have come up with some Harry Potter love statistics.

• 18% of 18-24 year olds voted Ron and Hermione as their favourite couple from TV and film.
• Maybe J.K Rowling should have played the fictional romances out a little differently as a whopping 20% of the nation believe that Harry and Hermione should have ended up together as opposed to only 12% who voted Ron and Hermione as their favourite TV/Film coupling.
• Apart from the Friends “we were on a break” fiasco, Ron dumping a very disgruntled Lavender in the hospital was named the second worst breakup of screen history. (18%)
• 14% of 18-24 year olds said Dobby’s death was the most heart-breaking moment in film history.
• The nation also voted Dobby’s death as more heart-breaking than The Notebook, My Sister’s Keeper, ET and My Girl!
• It seems the films were slightly more popular than the books; of those who had both read the books and seen the films, the majority (37%) said they preferred the films. Although by a very small amount as 35% said they preferred the books and 28% said they liked them equally.
