Will Harry Potter's "Bad Guy" Become Edward Cullen's Enemy Too?

TomFeltonRobPattinson.jpg
Could another Harry Potter star being following in Rob Pattinson's footsteps and trading in his wand for immortality -- that is, making the jump from Harry Potter to Twilight?
 
Rumors are swirling that Tom Felton, who plays Harry's bleach-blond enemy Draco Malfoy, is being considered for the role of Riley in The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, the third installment of the series. Riley is described as "a handsome, blond, clean-cut college boy who falls victim to Victoria." And as true Twilight fans know, Riley plays an integral part in Victoria's plan to destroy Bella.
 
Tom took to his Twitter to address all the rumors:

This isn't the first time Tom has been suggested by fans for a role in Twilight. He was one of the favorites to be cast as Alec, a member of the Volturi and Jane's twin brother. The role eventually went to Cameron Bright.
 
Tom also Tweeted about his first day back on the Harry Potter set for the seventh film, The Deathly Hallows, which was today! He Twittered about his costume fitting, doing interviews, and even about his hair and makeup:

Do you think Tom would be a good choice to play Riley or do you have another actor in mind?

Sadie W. on June 4, 2009 5:44 PM

Ok Cody Linley would be good but this book i like form yea but tom should because of the accent he uses in harry potter would be perfect for riley!

Jennifer on June 4, 2009 6:17 PM

OMG I never thought about him as Riley but now that you mention it, I think he'd be perfect! I really hope he gets the role, he's a good actor. :)

I have another actor in mind and that is the hottie Joe Jonas!!! I would love to see that on the giant screen!

i think that he would be perfect for the role of riley cuz i pictured alec more tan with dark brown hair and not very tall.

~TEAM JACOB~

NO NO NO NO NO NO Malfo cannot be Riley!!!!!
He is all wrong!
Me and my friend agree!!!!!

CHANNING TATUM!!!=) he is soooooooo beautiful=)

Definatley not! they need someone else for sure!

OMJ he would b awesome for it!!! they should so do him!!! and ya Channing Tatum is realy hot but i dont think he should b in Twilight it just wouldnt fit

TEAM SETH: ALL THE WAY

Angelica on June 4, 2009 8:40 PM

TOTALLY..................NOT!!! hes already in harry potter and if he was in it he would mess da whole movie up! besides hes ugly!

I think Tom would be a great actor for the part- he fits Riley to a T! I

chocobunnylovr on June 4, 2009 10:04 PM

chocobunnyluvr

YOU WHO SAY HE SHOULD NOT PLAY RILEY ARE SOOOOOO WRONG :P!!!!!!!!! he is absolutely gorgeous! do not insult him! so he is in harry potter he can be in twilight too! don't be movie-ist (like racist but with movies..duh). Go TOM FELTON! AKA RILEY!!!!

~tom felton's # 1 fan lol :)

I think Tom Felton would be awesome playing Riley in Eclipse. That would be so cool! I love Harry Potter and Twilight so that is an awesome idea right there! Hope you get the part Tom!

Brianna Harper on June 4, 2009 10:45 PM

I LOVE Tom Felton! He should play Riley, but also I want him to play someone that's in more, not just for a few minutes! He and Taylor are always switching from the top of my list!!! I can't wait to see him in HPHBP!!!
Bri

Tom is perfect for Riley I even made a petition for him http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/Fandom/ please if you agree SIGN it if you don't agree please don't post negative comments on it

NO!! I do think he would be but he needs to STAY on Harry Potter! I mean Twilight sucked a little bit. Harry Potter Forever! Tom you GOTTA stay with the HP crew! My bff rps you your like his idol!!!!!!! You just cant get up and leave the crew for Twilight heck no! Besides if he did go to twilight they MIGHT have to get a NEW Draco Malfoy, they CANT get a new Draco!

JESSICA WENTZ FAN on June 5, 2009 8:09 AM

happy birthday pete wentz i love u!

i ♥ twilight on June 5, 2009 10:30 AM

No I say he sucks at acting and i hate him.I think somebody else thats better looking than him should play Riley. He should stay in Harry Potter and NOT be in any other movie than that!! really

EW EW EW! HE IS TO UGLY FOR THE ROLE OF A VAMPIRE! ITS BAD ENOUGH THAT ROB P. HAS 2 BE IN THEM.URRG!

Okay really the people who say he has too stay with the harry potter crew come on guys its time too get real harry potter is not going to be around for ever and i personaly think this would be a great career move for tom he is a wonderful actor and can do soo much better then channing tatum and plus channing is prolly go too end up making another G I joe movie soo that prolly leaves him out of the picking!!!! TOM WOULD BE GREAT!!!!! i fully support summit if they decide too go with tom as riley!!!!

I just read thru that part of the book last night and after reading about Tom maybe doing the part he was who I pictured as I read and I really think he would be perfect for the part. He is just mean enough and just sweet enough to do Riley justice.

Tom has to play Riley, he is the perfect person to play him!!!!! That would be soooooooooooo awesome if he played him! He is like exactly how I pictured Riley, he needs to play him!!!
Team Jacob allt the way!!!!!!

I <3 EDWARD on June 5, 2009 1:16 PM

He shouldn't play Riley!!!
Hes already on Harry Potter.
And he is UGLY!!!
***TEAM EDWARD***

Oh please no. Tom....for the love of all your fans...NO. I don't want to see another awesome actor fall for such a horrible series.

Manda ;) on June 5, 2009 3:29 PM

yeah, i think he'd be good, but he should've gotten a bigger part cos Riley's only on there for like 5 minutes!

i think he looks perfect 4 the part as Riley

I think he'd be awesome.......as long as this is as well as harry potter and not instead of it

Duh! I have 5 reasons
1. He is sooo hot
2. They need more stars like him and Kellen on Twilight
3. He is a GREAT actor
4. Twilight needs all the BIG stars they can get
5. He is sooo hot

OMG TOM FELTON AS HIM YA!!!GO TOM ALL YAL WHO DONT WANT HIM 2 B IN IS CARZY!HE IS SOSOOSO HOT!!!!OMG LOVE U TOM!!

I've never thought that he was attractive. BUT, he'd be a good Riley. (hopefully they'll get rid of that draco hair. ick).

Not that Riley really matters much anyways, he's only in a small part of the book.

But yeah, my best friend would be thrilled if he got the part, she LOVES him.

No way!!!!!!He's going 2 play riley!!!!!!tat would be just wierd!!!!!!!!!But he would be a good riley but he looks 2 young if he stands by victorias side!!!!!LOL!!!

twilightlover on June 6, 2009 3:18 PM

i think he would be good for the part..and JOE JONAS would so not be! i hate joe!! he's ugly and i hate his songs. but he would look like he was too young for victoria! still a good actor, but not really how i imagined riley. but i think he should do the part. that would be pretty cool, i guess. luv twilight forever!

I Hope so!!!! I luv him in Harry Potter, and i think he would make an amazing Riley!!!!!!!

carolina on June 6, 2009 4:16 PM

i agree with wat ''gem on''
said.
im not such a big fan of hp.
its stupid and just drags the whole movie.
i love twilight and im robet pattisons
#1 fan.
*******TEAM EDWARD ALL THE WAY!****8
I THINK TOM SHOULD PLAY THE PART CAUSE HE LOOKS LIKE A VAMPIRE!
LOL!

Fearless on June 6, 2009 5:42 PM

OMG!!! TOM WOULD BE SOOOO GOOD 4 THE PART AND I WOULD BE SOOOO HAPPY IF HE WAS IN IT!! OMG!!! AND CAROLINA....U SUCK OK? HP IS SOOOOO DIFFERENT FROM TWILIGHT AND THEY SHOULDNT BE COMPARED...ITS NOT STUPID EITHER...UR THE ONLY ONE THATS STUPID!! STOP INSULTING HP AND GET OFF THIS PAGE IF UR GOING TO!!

vamp_gurl on June 6, 2009 10:44 PM

ive watched all tha harry potters && he is pretty good @ actingg!!! i dont think he will be better than rob though...but hey, who knows right??

He is not good lookin enough to play the part

OMG NO!!!! I hate Twilight and I LOOOOOOOVE HP! First Rob now him! I dont think so! Tom is one of my faves and I would hate to see him be in a dumb Twilight movie!!! He better not!!!!

I think hese okay i mean just cause hese blond doesent mean he'se riley , they can look for someone more "vampire good looking" ...right ?

I think hese okay i mean just cause hese blond doesent mean he'se riley , they can look for someone more "vampire good looking" ...right ?

YES!Because almost every one on the cast of Harry Potter hates him because twilight stole there thunder.

YES!!!He would be perfect cuz Rob already knows how to act mad at him! it would be hilarious if he was Riley!

He probably should. It wouldn't be bad if he was. Hes a good actor and I think he can pass as a bad guy in TWILIGHT.

I think he would be great for it but someone said in one of the comments(i think it was Giselle) that Joe Jonas should do it. I think that would be hilarious seeing Joe doing that. It would make Eclipse a whole lot better(which I didn't think was possible)

Team Edward

sabrina (rob and Tay) on June 9, 2009 9:12 AM

i agree with i

H.P. and twilight fan in colorado on June 9, 2009 1:29 PM

totally he would be awesome he totally looks like the way i imagined riley he even has the pale white skin and if he is already on harry potter then robert patterson should not be playing edward.he even has the perfect face to play riley

h.p. and twilight fan in colorado on June 9, 2009 1:33 PM

joe jonas would not be "perfect" he is sooooooo ugly and riley supposed to be hot so tom should do it.
tom 4 riley

XXmamieXX on June 10, 2009 10:38 PM

i think that Tom would b great 4 Riley and Tom and Rob in another movie together talk about the movies getting hawter i love them both much.!!!!!!

Its a great opartunity in all but i cant see but just as (drumroll please!) DRACO MALFOY!!!!!!!!! Even though he sooooooooooooooooooooooo angers me in the harry potter books and movies, hes a good fella!

bless barrera on June 13, 2009 7:31 AM

holy crow! i hope it's not true , 'coz the twilight saga wud bcome a ''drop-off-for-harry-potter-movie''.
one harry potter co-star wud be enuf !
and robert pattison is perfect wid awt the others(harry potter cast)! he's doin' fine!

I think he would be *perfect* for Riley. It's exactly how I pictured him in the book.
And someone said they might have to get a new Draco if he does it? Not true. Tom's worked on a few others movies while doing Harry Potter. It's possible.
Plus, Tom's awesome. I want to see him in as many movies as I can, since a lot of things he's done are UK exclusive.

...But, yeah. Tom for Riley.

I really hope it all goes thru.. Hes soo hot! and would be perrrfect for the movie!

i think he would be a good riley
GO TEAM JACOB !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i think he would be a good riley
GO TEAM JACOB !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i think he would be a good riley
GO TEAM JACOB !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

MrsJoeJonas636 on June 19, 2009 9:52 PM

No, I dont like Tom..they should get someone more better for the role..just cuz he plays a bad guy in harry potter doesnt mean he could play a bad guy anywhere..vampires dont match him..they should get some one else, cuz it doesnt match him...it matches him being a wizard then a vampire..besides, he is kinda ugly..no offense..joe jonas is the hottest guy in the world, but joe wont fit the role either..

JONASLOVER(JOE)<3 on June 20, 2009 5:06 PM

tom felton is soo ugly! he is like 1 of the ugliest guys i've ever seen! joe jonas is the hottest guy in the universe, and the role doesnt match him either. they should get some one better, someone that matches the role of a vampire. tom felton should just stick to harry potter, and harry potter sucks so bad too. they should get some one more professional and tom felton sucks at singing, acting, and looking hot. no offense to ANY tom felton lover, but thats just my opinion

MrsJoeJonas636 on June 20, 2009 5:31 PM

tom isnt that good-looking. my older sister and her friend think he is so hot, but i dont agree. he is not "hot" he is more cute/ugly..like, rlly rare pics of him are cute, but if u type tom felton on google and stuff, he looks super ugly. i tom doesn't fit the role much..he should stick to harry potter, and im not a fan of either movies, twiight or harry potter...twilight's robert pattinson is ONLY HOT in twilight, but he is ugly off screen! tom is ugly in the 1st and 2nd movie with his hair gelled bak..his best movie is probably Half blood prince and the 3rd and 4th movie..but dont get me wrong, he is not "ugly" he is not hot either, he is like maybe a little below or above average...in general, i just dont think the role would match tom felton...he should stick to harry potter and besides, all the people in harry potter would hate on him if he moves to an opposing movie. btw, harry potter might fire him from being draco malfoy, and im pretty sure no Harry Potter fans' wanna see him crush and burn like that. (trust me, im not a harry potter fan what-so-ever, but it wouldn't be nice to see him lose his role like that..he is atleast the best person on harry potter) he can act well, but he can only act as a villian, and i cant picture him acting like a good guy..basically, he shouldnt get the role, only if he wants to get it, and his fans are okay with it, then he should go. but im just saying for the sake of his fans, he shouldnt.
in my opinion, i dont like him, but he is kinda good looking.. reading the comments above me i saw a few ppl saying that in twilight, they describe Riley as handsome.. they have to do a HUGE makeover on tom! they have to re-design his hair, and make it more appealing. his hair gelled in the first 2 harry potter movies was SO UGLY! i couldnt take it! but, harry potter messed up on his hair afterwards aswell! they made his hair into 1 layer. they were supposed to layer his hair, not take away layers and make it only into 1 layer..it makes him look uglier.
They should re design his hair, and make it match the theme of twilight. tom also has the accent since he is from england and so does robert pattinson. and robert pattinson and tom felton are friends because robert pattinson played the role as Cedric in one harry potter movie. robert pattinson should probably show him arounnd and give him some advice of wat tom felton should do, and should try to avoid to do. this is my opinion, and i hoped it helped! i stated this in the best way i could! sorry its soo long, but it was fun to write! now, im just gonna write how much i love joe jonas and the jonas brothers! here is the order in which i love the jonas brothers in: JOE, NICK, KEVIN! i love them all, but joe is the hottest man in the world, nick jonas is definatley the 2nd hottest man in the world and kevin jonas MIGHT BE THE 3rd hottest man in the world ( although i have seen better looking than kevin jonas) anyways, i hope my opinion on tom felton playing the role as riley helped..if he gets the role, it might match him depending on how the twilight ppl change him..if he doesn't get the role, he still has a main role in harry potter. hope this helped! Good-bye!
I I I I I I I I

btw, as much as i love the jonas brothers ( especially joe, i read a few comments saying that joseph adam jonas should play the role as riley instead, i disagree. joe wouldn't match playing a vampire..as HOT as he is, joe could easily play the hotness of a vampire and he could act REALLY GOOD, but i cant picture him in twilight..twilight is already messed up, and i dont want joe jonas to embarass himseld..thats it for me, peace, love, jonas!

Edward Cullen rocks i do not want harry potter's (bad boy) to be ebward cullen.

no keep tom felton and his sexiness out of thoose retarded films!robert pattison is a douche

Sabrina Khan on July 3, 2009 1:24 PM

i think tom felton would be awesome in the role as riley. i also love the harry potter series ive read all the books and ive seen all the movies. i think that they were all awesome and tom is a great actor who really plays his part well.

YYYESSSSS!!!!!!! eclipse was my least favorite book, the movie will suck too, tom is the only one who can pull that role off. why did they choose this ugly jamie campwhatever-thing???? i don't get it - totally miscast. c'mon people, vote vote vote for tom
http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/Fandom/

This is soooooooo gr8.I can't believe it!tom's so hot.he is totally gonna luk awesome in dis role.i REALLY hope the rumours r true!

i think lucas till should play riley . but honestly i think tom is more vampire material ( i mean bad vampire ) . But i prefer lucas.
go team edward !!!!!

i think he'd be a good Riley....or Channing Tatum should yessss!!!!

All I have to say is forget Edward/Rob Pattinson!!!!


Team Taycob for life!!!!

I think that tom felton should come out as riley!!! He fits the description. He is certainly what they are looking for. He is handsome, blond, and a clean-cut college boy.

i think he is PERFECT for riley. if he lands this role, it would be really awesome

i think he is PERFECT for riley. if he lands this role, it would be really awesome

I THINK IF TOM FELTON STARING IN TWILIGHT ITS GOING TO SUCK ON ICE!!! SOME PEOPLE HATE HARRY POTTER AND IF SOME OF THE PEOPLE FROM THE POTTER SET COMES OVER TO THE TWILIGHT SET ITS GOING TO MAKE THE MOVIE SUCK!!!!!! STOP THIS FROM HAPPENING!!!!!!!!! ALSO WHAT HAPPENED TO POTTER V.S CULLEN. IT DOESENT SAY A MAKE UP! NO!!!!!!!!!

Charlotte on August 2, 2009 4:40 PM

Tom would play an awesome Riley. He has that vampire and mysterious look to him. He would be awesome, no doubt about it!

ataylor10 on August 7, 2009 8:28 PM

OMG i think tom felton would be great por the part of riley he is how i pictured him to be . i love him he does such a great job playing drayco malfoy thats why i kno he would be such a great choice for playing riley no question about it

luvtwilight on August 8, 2009 8:44 PM

cutiepiejulzie on August 26, 2009 12:11 PM

omigosh, i really hope not. He is soooo ugly. And I don't even like harry potter. He's ugly, the stupidness is stupid. And I would die if he did. But then I would have to wake up and watch the rest of the movie.
