Tom Felton's reaction to a Draco Malfoy scene has taught us that the actor hates frogs. Oh, and he is adorable.

Even more than two decades after the premiere, Draco Malfoy remains one of the most highly-praised Harry Potter characters. And it's largely thanks to Tom Felton 's phenomenal performance. From the very first scene, viewers could feel his viciousness and arrogance. And his smirks are hands-down the best smirks ever.

The actor, though, has always been modest preferring to praise his co-stars when it came to discussing the beloved franchise. And his reaction to the first Draco scene serves as proof of that. The video of the reaction published by Peacock gave fans life.

"This video just makes me wanna see cast members do a full movie reaction to all 8 movies," one of Wizarding World fans commented under the post.

Felton took his assignment seriously. Wearing a Slytherin hoodie and round glasses, he was drinking from a Harry Potter cauldron mug while watching his debut scene for the first time in almost 20 years. And looks like he hasn't forgotten a single moment.

Throughout the video, Felton was mimicking everyone's expressions and lines and, naturally, nailed them. But when he saw his own 12-year-old face, he blushed and laughed in the most adorable manner.

Felton had the strongest reaction and amused many fans when he saw Trevor the frog.

"Trevor!" the actor exclaims. "I'm glad [Matthew Lewis] had a frog. I would not pick it up. I am not good with amphibious... hopping things."

Speaking of Lewis, Felton had the best reaction when seeing his long-time pal and a banter partner sporting his chubby-cheek pre-glow-up look.

"Oh, Matthew Lewis look at you!" he said laughing.

When Harry refused to shake Draco's hand thus unfriending him forever, Felton said in a true Slytherin fashion,

"Wrong answer Harry, you just missed out on a serious opportunity."

This unexpected reply had many fans laughing and was called the best part of the video in the comments.

When new Hogwarts students entered The Great Hall, Felton shared very interesting memories. Though the hall was one of the first sets to be built, the child stars had their first actual look at it during the filming of their debut Hogwarts scene. So their reaction on-screen was genuine. Felton admitted that even many years later, he was still impressed with the set.
