Tom Felton is passing the wand.
The "Harry Potter" star, 38, shared on the "Happy Sad Confused" podcast that he has "sent word" to Lox Pratt, the young actor taking on the role of Draco Malfoy in the new HBO adaptation.
Felton, who played Harry Potter's nemesis Draco in the "Potter" feature films, noted he did not want to give specific advice to Pratt but instead offered him support and gave his contact information.
"The last thing I'm going to do is offer anything other than say, 'Here's my phone number. Here's my address,'" he said. "To his parents, as well as him, and to anyone else there. 'I can't offer you advice. This is your journey. Have as much fun as possible. Take as many pictures as you can. Steal as many props as you can. They'll be worth a fortune. But also, if you do need a word of encouragement or questions to ask, I'm there.'"
The "Harry Potter" HBO series will be a new adaptation of J.K. Rowling's original books, meaning it will cover the same story as the movies with new, young actors stepping into the roles.
