“Make sure you can handle it.” Ralph Fiennes has hilarious advice for the new Lord Voldemort in the Harry Potter series from HBO Max
Ralph Fiennes, having experience playing Lord Voldemort, decided to share advice for the new actor who will play this character in the Harry Potter series from HBO Max.
More roles in the Harry Potter series are being cast. We have already met more than a dozen performers who will appear in the HBO Max production, although the names of those who will play certain key roles, such as Lord Voldemort, are still missing. This character may not play a big role in the first book, and therefore also in the first season of the series, but we can see his face at the end, so fans expect that we will soon know the actor who will play the main antagonist of the show.
For now, the name of the artist is unknown, but Ralph Fiennes, the previous actor of Lord Voldemort, already has some valuable advice for this person. He cautions actor on what he should prepare for, as it will be inevitable in this role. This is a rather comical piece of advice, regarding the robes that Voldemort wears. Wearing them is not supposed to be such a simple task at all, and Fiennes' experience in this subject is certainly valuable – after all, he had to wear them for several movies (via Entertainment Tonight).
Make sure you can handle the long flowing robes! And don't trip over them. Practice your long flowing robe walk. And also, I wore tights. Initially, I wore tights that were one piece, so they had a gusset, which then kept getting lower and lower through the shooting day. It became uncomfortable. So I said I want to have individual tights, like a garter belt. So I enjoyed teasing the stunt guys by lifting up my robes and showing them my garter belt.
It seems that despite playing a bad character, Ralph Fiennes had fun on the set, even in such an uncomfortable outfit as Voldemort's robes, which could be tripped over.
It's possible that we'll soon meet the big bad from the Harry Potter series, which fans are waiting impatiently for, having several dream candidates like Cillian Murphy.
