Ralph Fiennes warns the new Voldemort of the Harry Potter series

After having embodied Voldemort in five films between 2005 and 2011, Ralph Fiennes necessarily has precious advice for the one who will play the Lord of Darkness in the next television adaptation of Harry Potter.

Just wrapped in Conclave's success, the actor three times appointed to the Oscars received praise for his latest film 28 years later. But it is his cult role of this one-one-ne-no-and-pronouncing-the name in the adaptations to the cinema of the saga of JK Rowling which particularly attracts attention.

To date, the Harry Potter reboot by HBO has confirmed some of the biggest Hollywood stars, such as John Lithgow, Janet McTeer, Nick Frost or even PAAPA Essiedu whose presence arouses controversy. The very young Dominic McLaughlin, Arabella Stanton and Alastair Stout will play Harry, Hermione and Ron respectively. And although Voldemort's role has not yet been awarded, Ralph Fiennes has some advice for his future interpreter.

Unexpected clothing advice

During an interview with Entertainment Tonightthe actor said: “Make sure to master the long floating dresses, and do not trip on it. Train to walk with long and floating dresses.“Fiennes then explained that his tights”kept slipping during the filming days, becoming uncomfortable“.

He then asked for “Individual tights with garters“To tease the stuntmen in”lifting [sa] Dress to show them [ses] jarretelles“.

Voldemort: A poisoned role?

Two years after the announcement of the Harry Potter reboot by HBO, the controversy linked to JK Rowling's words on transgender people remains lively. Any actor participating in the project is in fact exposed to a backlash. Even the most faithful fans are considering a boycott. For this reason alone, taking on the very publicized role of Voldemort is the poisoned chalice.

Trying to replace Ralph Fiennes, iconic incarnation of the Lord of Darkness, makes the task even more difficult. If HBO manages to recruit high -flying actors like Cillian Murphy or Tom Hiddleston, this could help redo the image of the series. But it is unlikely that they risk their reputation.
