Why Tom Felton Is Hilariously "Pissed" Over the Barbie Movie

She's everything. He's just Draco Malfoy.
At least, that appears to be how Tom Felton is feeling ahead of the release of the Barbie movie.
As fans eagerly wait to see Margot Robbie step into the pink heels of the titular doll, the 35-year-old shared a hilarious meme comparing his Harry Potter character to Barbie's affable companion Ken, who is played by Ryan Gosling in the comedy.
Alongside a split photo of their two characters scowling while rocking platinum blond hair, Tom joked in July 19 Instagram post, "Kind of pissed I never got a callback."
He added, "#sLYTHERKeN."
However, the comparison sparked a friendly debate in the comments section over who Draco would be in a Barbie-Ken dynamic.
"You're Harry's ken," one fan wrote, while another argued, "Draco is not ken he is barbie."
However, this is not the first movie crosscover discourse about Ken in recent weeks. As Ryan previously told E! News, Ken would be "really jealous" of his The Notebook character Noah Calhoun.
"He had a house" the actor remarked, adding that his Barbie character would also likely be envious of Noah's ability to grow facial hair, "and Ken has nowhere to live."
But, as Margot put it, Ken "would love" Noah's tenacity as well.
Directed by Greta Gerwig, Barbie also stars America Ferrera, Kate McKinnon, Issa Rae, Dua Lipa, Hari Nef, Simu Liu, Kingsley Ben-Adir, John Cena, Michael Cera and Will Ferrell.
"I Ken'd as hard as I could," Ryan joked of his role. "I Ken'd."

Co-stars Margot and Ryan Gosling sported matching rollerblades and coordinating outfits on the set of the Barbie movie on June 27.
Robbie and Gosling, who star as Barbie and Ken, share a laugh while filming by the beach in Southern California.
