‘Without Hagrid, There’s No Hogwarts’: Draco Reflects On Harry Potter Guardian’s Death

Like other Harry Potter stars, actor Tom Felton paid tribute to Robbie Coltrane when he died last October. Today, the Brit does it again in an emotionally charged text Posted by Eonline on March 30thA date that coincided with Rubeus’ year 73 as Hagrid’s interpreter.

In this text, Tom Felton notes that the cast of the saga consisted of young actors, but also of more experienced stars. “You were either one of the kids or one of the adults. Unless you were Robbie Coltrane.”Written by the man who played Draco Malfoy on screen. Robbie managed to be a grown-up and a kid at the same time, grabbing a leg from both sides.

Rob calls Coltrane a man “extremely funny”, “constant teasing” and “always nice”With his constant desire to lighten the mood and make people laugh, Tom Felton welcomes the fact that the actor, “esteemed and respected” He became a child again by his adult peers when he came into contact with the younger ones.

“We just wanted to be kid-friendly, fun and high-spirited. And Rob was like that.”says the 35-year-old British actor. “There was more evil in him than a common room full of Slytherins. (…) He may have had the mind of an adult, but he truly had the heart of a child.”

Tom Felton insists on the professional side of Coltrane, who can teach the essentials of the trade to others without showing off. “neither boring nor humiliating”But above all, he keeps his light side. “He never took himself too seriously”he notes. “And I think that was the root of it all, because if Robb had taken himself too seriously, if he’d forgotten what it meant to be good, he wouldn’t have been Hagrid.”

And Felton concludes: “Without Hagrid, there’s no Hogwarts. And no one can, and never will, play half the gentle giant like my dear friend Robbie Coltrane, who I miss.”
