Ralph and Voldemort

Ralph’s full name is - amazingly - Ralph Twisleton Wykeham Fiennes.

When he was asked to play Voldemort, Ralph had to admit that he hadn’t actually read any of the books.

Ralph has compared Voldemort to a character from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, saying that The Child Catcher was the literary figure he was most scared of when he was young.

Ralph said in one interview that during filming (when he was in full costume), he walked past the child of a script supervisor. The child burst into tears. Ralph says this made him feel good about himself...!

Ralph also once said that he understands Voldemort’s evilness, saying that being very lonely as a child probably contributed to his character.

According to JK Rowling, you don’t pronounce the ‘T’ at the end of VoldemorT.

Voldemort’s real name is of course Tom Marvolo Riddle.

Voldemort has in fact been played by 6 different actors in the films. Ian Hart and Richard Bremner both played him in different scenes in the first film. Christian Coulson played Tom Riddle in the Chamber of Secrets. Ralph Fiennes is obviously best-known for the role, but Hero Fiennes-Tiffin (Ralph’s nephew) played the young Tom Riddle in Half-blood Prince, and Frank Dillane played him in the same film as an adolescent.

Voldemort cannot understand love as he was conceived when his father was under the influence of a love potion - something known in the wizarding world to cause emotional complications.

One ability that Voldemort possesses that amazes even the most worldly-wise of wizards is that he can fly without the aid of any magical instrument.
