The new attraction, which opens to the public on July 8, expands the original Harry Potter world, which opened in 2010 and is modeled after Hogsmeade Village, which is located near the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry where the series' leading character Harry Potter begins his magical adventures.

If only the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry existed in real life, fans of the “Harry Potter” books and films would be curious to find out which of the four great houses they would be sorted into. Actor Tom Felton, who plays the cunning antagonist Draco Malfoy in all eight "Harry Potter" films, took on the imaginary role of the sorting hat. He placed famous celebrities like Kim Kardashian and her husband Kanye West into respective houses according to his perception of their personalities.

In a recent interview with Huffington Post to promote his new film “Against the Sun,” Felton was not able to escape his past as one of the main characters in the “Harry Potter” films. When asked to sort some other popular celebrities into one of the four houses of Slytherin, Gryyfindor, Ravenclaw or Hufflepuff, Felton happily obliged. It must be noted that Felton’s character Draco Malfoy was part of Slytherin house which has a reputation of having wizards that turned out to become Death Eaters or followers of the Dark Lord.

The first celebrity presented to Felton was reality star Kim Kardashian. He didn’t hesitate and immediately placed him in Slytherin house. However, Kim’s husband Kanye West wasn’t sorted with her but instead ended up in Hufflepuff. Felton decided that Justin Bieber should end up with him in Slytherin along with Pitbull. He was also absolutely convinced that Miley Cyrus should be in Slytherin.

When asked about Taylor Swift, Tom said that she was too good and should be in Gryffindor along with Ariana Grande, whom he described as “sweet." He also thought that One Direction singer Harry Styles should join Taylor and Ariana in Gryyfindor house. Meanwhile, he believes that actress Gwyneth Paltrow is a loyal person and decided to put her in Ravenclaw.

Felton also confessed that he took a character quiz in the Pottermore website. Pottermore is the home of all things “Harry Potter” online and is developed by the books’ author, JK Rowling. He said that he took the quiz and he ended up being cast as Filch, one of the characters that he hates. Despite enjoying a new career outside of the “Harry Potter” films, Felton says that he thought the popularity of “Harry Potter” would die down after the films ended, but to his delight, fans are not getting tired of it.
