Emma Watson Recalls The Moment She Fell In LOVE With Co-Star Tom Felton, Confesses He Always Had A ‘Soft Spot For Her’

However, ahead of the much-awaited premiere, Emma Watson has recalled the day she 'just fell in love' with Harry Potter co-star, actor Tom Felton.

“I walked into the room where we were having tutoring. The assignment that had been given was to draw what you thought God looked like, and Tom had drawn a girl with a backward cap on a skateboard. And I just don’t know how to say it--I just fell in love with him. I used to come in every day and look for his number on the call sheet, it was number seven, and if his name was on the call sheet, it was an extra exciting day. He was three years above me and so for him, he was like, ‘You’re like my little sister’,” said Emma as quoted by ET Canada during the reunion.

Speaking about the same, Tom Felton said, “I think I was in the hair and make-up chair and someone said something along the lines of, ‘Yeah, she had a crush on you'. I became very protective over her. Yeah, I’ve always had a soft spot for her and that continues to this day,” he added. “There’s always been something that’s like, I don’t know, a kinship.” 


Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, along with other cast members and filmmakers will come together to celebrate 20 years of the franchise. Robbie Coltrane (Hagrid), Jason Isaacs (Lucius Malfoy), Gary Oldman (Sirius Black), Helena Bonham Carter (Bellatrix Lestrange) will also interact in the reunion episode.
