Tom Felton got his first acting break as the infamous Draco Malfoy in 2001’s Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone. Since then, he’s gone on to star in a variety of movies, from underground horrors to period dramas.
Thanks to his turn as Harry Potter’s nemesis, he’s also gained a host of followers – 11 million on Instagram and 3 million on Twitter. His reach is phenomenal, and he makes additional money with TV appearances and his merchandising store.
But how much money does the wizarding star actually have? What is Tom Felton’s net worth?
Tom Felton Net Worth
While we don’t know how much Tom Felton was paid to appear in each of the Harry Potter films, it’s likely a lot considering his co-star’s salaries.
For example, Daniel Radcliffe was paid a reported $145,000, or £107,000, for his role in the first Harry Potter film. As a supporting character, tom Felton likely earned less than £100,000 for his appearance as Draco.
However, by the end of the series, Daniel was earning $20 million or £14.8 million per film. These are impressive numbers, and give a sense of what Tom Felton’s net worth could be.

In total, Tom Felton’s net worth is estimated to be around $20 million or £14.8 million.
When questioned about whether the money and fame were worth giving years of his life away to the franchise, he had a surprising answer. Tom said: “One thing that people keep on saying to me is that the wealth and the fame must have made up for missing out on my childhood.
But the idea of money – putting a price on your childhood – is ridiculous. You will never get those years back and you can’t put a price on them.”
Who is Tom Felton
Tom Felton was born on the 22nd of September 1987 in Surrey, England. As a child, he was musical and was offered a place at the Guildford Cathedral Choir thanks to his vocal abilities.
His first acting credit was in the 1997 film The Borrowers, but he had been appearing in TV adverts before this. Between 2001 and 2011 he was primarily known for his role in the Harry Potter films and appeared in little else.
Seeing Tom Felton’s net worth, though, he clearly had no reason to.

Harry Styles’ Girlfriend: Who Is He Dating?
In 2008, the actor started dating stunt assistant Jade Olivia Gordon. She even had a starring role in the final Harry Potter film, as Draco Malfoy’s wife.
Sadly, the couple split up in 2016. Since then, he’s kept his dating life very quiet, appearing only to dispel rumours about a romance with one of his old Harry Potter cast members.
Many people have questioned whether his relationship with Emma Watson, who played Hermione, is more than just friendly. However, Tom has settled the question, saying:
“I adore her, I think she’s fantastic. Hopefully, she returns the compliment. But as far as the romantic side of it, I think that’s a Slytherin-Gryffindor thing rather than a Tom and Emma thing.”
What Is He Doing Now?
Tom Felton left the world of Harry Potter behind him over ten years ago now but still has regular acting credits. However, he has stuck to smaller, independent productions rather than big Hollywood blockbusters.
In 2011, the same year that Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 came out, he had a main role in Rise of the Planet of the Apes.
Later, he also starred in the period drama films Belle and Ophelia, and the comedy-drama film Braking for Whales.
More recently, though, he’s been in the headlines for other reasons.
