Ralph is nothing but the perfect Voldemort of Phineas! But for the new ‘Harry Potter’ series, it’s not a choice. However, the actor, who played the evil wizard in five of the eight films in the franchise, has some recommendations for what he thinks would be an amazing role. During an appearance on a talk-show, the actor revealed his position on “who” he would fit in the role.
Ralph Phineas says Tilda Swinton would look amazing as Voldemort
The actress recently appeared on ‘The Claudia Winkleman Show’ and was asked her opinion on who should take on the role of the villain, which has yet to be cast. “I remember being asked the question, ‘Would I revive the part?’ This was a few years ago. And I said, ‘Yeah, I’d love to,'” he said. “But then nothing happened, and I think that ship has sailed.”Although he finally agreed, “I’ll tell you, Tilda Swinton was mentioned somewhere as a contender, and I think she would be amazing.”
Tilda Swinton is the White Witch in “The Chronicles of Narnia”.
Tilda Swinton is best known for her Oscar-winning performance in “Michael Clayton” and her portrayal of the White Witch in “The Chronicles of Narnia.” His credits include ‘Suspiria’, ‘Snowpiercer’, ‘We Need to Talk About Kevin’, ‘Asteroid City’ and ‘The Room Next Door’, among many others.
When Cillian Murphy cleared his doubts about being Voldemort
Last year, Cillian Murphy tackled rumors that he would play the character in the series. However, he shut them down, telling Josh Horowitz on the ‘Happy Sad Confused’ podcast: “I don’t know anything about that. I mean, it’s also very difficult to follow anything Ralph Fiennes does. The man is an absolute acting legend. So good luck to whoever is going to fill his shoes.”
