London (AP) - The British actor Tom Felton (33), who embodied Draco Malfoy in the "Harry Potter" films, was intimidated by Snape actor Alan Rickman for years, according to his own words.

Working with the more than 40 years older colleague was "scary," said Felton in a video on Tiktok, adding: "He was the only actor I knew and he was terrifying in the most pleasant way."

"I met him when I was twelve, so it took me a few years to find the courage to say more than 'Hi'."

However, Rickman was also "very, very nice" and had a "mischievous sense of humor".

It was a real privilege to work with him, stressed Felton.

Rickman, who had also played in films such as “Sense and Sensibility” or “Robin Hood”, died of cancer in 2016 at the age of 69.
