Who will play Voldemort in the new Harry Potter series?
HBO have reportedly found who will play Voldemort in the upcoming Harry Potter series. The newest adaptation of the wizard book series recently showed off photos of Dominic McLoughlin on set as Harry, and Nick Frost playing Hagrid on set. But despite the cast pretty much confirmed for all roles, one name is yet to be attached to the most important character in the series — Voldemort. While HBO reportedly have cast the Dark Lord, they want to keep him a secret — but hasn't stopped the rumour mill, with several names being floated as to who could play him; including one of our own. Once again, Cillian Murphy is being floated to play a villain. Pic: Brian McEvoy When you win an Oscar, you immediately become a hot commodity — with Cillian being a hot favourite to take over the role. Fans of the series are already on board with Cillian potentially being Voldemort, including the film series' villain Ralph Fiennes, who gave his seal of approval on the Corkonian taking on the role. 'Cillian is a fantastic actor,' Ralph said. 'That's a wonderful suggestion. I would be all in favour of Cillian. Yeah.' The Welsh actor has played villains before, with some reckoning that he'd be a perfect fit for Voldemort. Pic: Matt Baron/REX/Shutterstock Whether Batman or Bateman, Christian Bale is able to play heroes and villains well — and why not play one of the most well known villains in the world? Christian has played villains in his most recent films, including Gorr the God butcher in Thor: Love and Thunder, and is set to play Frankenstein's Monster in The Bride!, the most recent adaptation of Bride of Frankenstein. So surely he can make room to play another bad guy! Matt has played villains before, with people wondering if he'd be the actor to take on the role. Pic: Eyepix Group / MilestoneMedia/PA Images Having a history with HBO in playing Daemon Targaryen in House of the Dragon, Matt Smith has also been a name that could play Tom Riddle that's been floating about in Internet circles. And again, why not? While he may be best known as The Doctor, Matt has had no issue playing a villain — perhaps he could be on board to take on the role of He Who Shall Not Be Named. And yet, some are clamouring for the original Voldemort himself, Ralph Fiennes, to reprise his role. Pic: Brian McEvoy And yet, despite all that, some people would like the original Voldemort to reprise his role. Playing the role of Voldemort from 2005 to 2011 across four films, many associate the villain role with Ralph. However, he has kept mum on if he'd reprise the role; but gave good advice to whomever will take on the role of the evil wizard. 'Make sure you can handle the long flowing robes and don't trip over them,' Ralph said. 'Practice your long flowing robe walk.' Fair enough.

Christian Bale's entire family stuns in all-black for rare public appearance at D&G couture show
Christian Bale traded the shadows for the spotlight, and it wasn't for a film premiere. The notoriously private actor made a rare public appearance in Rome on July 14, stepping out with his wife Sibi Blazic and their children to support daughter Luka Bale, 20, as she walked in Dolce & Gabbana's Alta Moda fashion show. Bale, 51, cut a sharp figure in an all-black suit as he held hands with Blazic, his wife of 25 years. Their 11-year-old son, Rex Bale, also suited up for the occasion, trailing close behind the couple. The family later posed for photos alongside designer Domenico Dolce, making for a rare and elegant public portrait. Luka, who made her modeling debut at the same event in 2021, returned to the Alta Moda runway with poise and confidence, clearly earning her place among celebrity fashion royalty. Though both children have appeared in Bale's 2022 Marvel film Thor: Love and Thunder, Luka and Rex have largely grown up out of the public eye. In fact, fans only learned the correct name of Bale's son in 2024 after his rep clarified that 'Joseph', long assumed by the internet, was incorrect. Rex was properly credited in the Marvel film, as was Luka, who was previously listed in Bale's 2016 racing drama Ford v Ferrari. Despite Bale's longtime aversion to fame, he's made it clear that family comes first. 'I'm not going to miss her growing up for anything, not even for Batman,' he once told British GQ about his daughter. For one night in Rome, the Bale family embraced the flashbulbs, and let Luka shine.
