Yesterday, 15:27
Ralph Fiennes, known for his portrayal of Voldemort, is eagerly anticipating the upcoming Harry Potter series. While the actor doesn't know who will land the villainous role, he already has a favorite.
Cillian Murphy, the star of Peaky Blinders and Oppenheimer, is one of the top contenders to play Voldemort in the new project. When Fiennes was asked to comment on this choice, he responded:
Cillian is a fantastic actor. That's a wonderful suggestion. I would be all in favor of Cillian.
Interestingly, Fiennes himself is open to returning to the role of the Dark Lord, though Warner Bros. is assembling an entirely new cast. Whether an exception will be made for the star remains to be seen.
The first season of Harry Potter is set to premiere in 2027. Earlier, Variety reported on the potential casting of Albus Dumbledore.
