Any diehard Tom Felton fan is well aware that he’s spent the past television season in Central City hanging out with the multiverse hopping gang from Star Labs in the hit CW Series The Flash. This twenty-first century version of the DC Comics original stars the ever charming Grant Gustin as the high-speed superhero along with a group of seasoned actors who bring some lighthearted laughs to their weekly episodes hunting metahumans.

As previously reported by Leaky, this year delivered a newcomer to the cast in the shape of Harry Potter alum, Felton, Gryffindor nemesis Draco Malfoy. The former Slytherin plays CSI Julian Albert, who midway through the season was revealed to be the evil Dr. Alchemy, henchman of Savitar, the ruler of the Speed Force. Once team Flash was able to wake Julian from his supervillain-controlled trance, his contentious Malfoy-Potteresque relationship with Gustin’s Barry Allen seems to have taken a much friendlier turn.

Though their characters needed some time to find their stride, real life co-stars Felton and Gustin look chummy enough in this announcement of their tandem appearance at the 2nd Annual Silicon Valley Comic Con April 21-23 at the San Jose Convention Center in San Jose, CA. The pair are scheduled for a fan Q &A on Sunday where they will undoubtedly do some bantering about their on-screen antics.

The event, which is a collaboration between Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak and comic book legend Stan Lee, will include the usual panel discussions, exhibitors, and cosplay, in addition to a new outdoor component across the street from the venue.

Other high-profile convention guest include veteran film actor John Cusak, Apollo 11 Astronaut Buzz Aldrin, Star Trek’s original Captain Kirk, William Shatner, and Steven Yeun, the ill-fated Glenn from the Walking Dead,

Tickets for SVCC can be purchased here.

Tom Felton can be seen on the Flash Tuesdays on the CW.
