Couldn’t have handed the snake-topped baton on to anyone better,' Isaacs said Jason Isaacs is passing Lucius Malfoy's torch! The actor, 62, congratulated actor-musician Johnny Flynn after he secured the role of Lucius Malfoy in HBO's upcoming Harry Potter reboot series.

British actor Jason Isaacs joined Jesse Tyler Ferguson for a meal and a chat on the latest episode of Dinner's on Me. The pair met at the London vegetarian restaurant Tendril (Isaacs is vegan, but Ferguson said he loves a challenge) and they discussed several contours of the White Lotus star's career.
