From Hogwarts to Hollywood: The Enduring Careers of Harry Potter Stars

Ralph Fiennes – Lord Voldemort

Ralph Fiennes left an indelible mark as Lord Voldemort, for his portrayal of the iconic antagonist who was genuinely chilling. Much like Voldemort, Ralph bears a name that’s challenging to pronounce in full—Ralph Nathaniel Twistleton-Wykeham-Fiennes, to be precise. Quite the mouthful!

Beyond the wizarding world, this Royal Academy of Dramatic Art alumnus has delivered outstanding performances in films such as “The Grand Budapest Hotel,” “Great Expectations,” “The End of the Affair,” and “Maid in Manhattan.” With a career from 1985, Ralph continues to shine in the industry. In 2022’s “The Menu”, he played Chef Slowik with a disarming blend of Zen-like calmness and obsessive control.
