Felton auditioned to play Harry and Ron before landing the role of Draco.
In a 2011 interview with MTV News, the actor said that he originally read for Harry Potter and Ron Weasley before auditioning for Draco Malfoy.
"I'm very grateful I am in the film at all, but even more grateful that I got the character of Draco," Felton told the publication.
He continued, "I think Rupert [Grint] and Dan [Radcliffe], there's no question in my mind, there's no one else in the world that, A) could have played the character better, but B) could have handled the behind-the-scenes pressure those guys have dealt with over the last decade."
