“Make sure you can handle it.” Ralph Fiennes has hilarious advice for the new Lord Voldemort in the Harry Potter series from HBO Max

by

In the Harry Potter series, additional characters are being chosen for their roles. Over a dozen actors have been introduced and will feature in the HBO Max production. However, the identities of those taking on significant roles like Lord Voldemort remain undisclosed. Though this character might not play a pivotal role in the initial book or season, fans anticipate learning who will portray the primary antagonist of the series as his face is shown towards the end.

As a fan, I can share an intriguing tidbit: The identity of the artist remains undisclosed, but Ralph Fiennes, who once breathed life into Lord Voldemort, has some invaluable insights for this upcoming actor. He advises them to brace themselves for certain aspects of this role, particularly when it comes to the intricate robes that Voldemort dons. Wearing these robes might seem straightforward at first glance, but Fiennes’ experience in this area is undeniably beneficial – considering he had to wear them across multiple films (as reported by Entertainment Tonight).

Be mindful of your long, flowing garments to avoid tripping or entanglement. Get used to moving gracefully in them. On set, I had one-piece tights that kept slipping down throughout the day, causing discomfort. To alleviate this, I requested separate tights, similar to a garter belt. Occasionally, I’d amuse the stunt team by raising my skirts and flashing my garter belt.

It appears that, while portraying a villainous role, Ralph Fiennes managed to enjoy himself on set, even wearing the discomfort of Voldemort’s robes, which were prone to causing trips.

It might happen shortly that we encounter the formidable villain from the Harry Potter saga, who is eagerly anticipated by fans, with several potential favorites such as Cillian Murphy in contention.
