Lord Voldemort

image=This fan-made poster for the Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire movie pictures Lord Voldemort (played by Ralph Fiennes) when he has returned to power. It is not yet known what Voldemort will actually look like in the film, although a swedish newspaper recently showed a picture showing Voldemort which they claimed was from the movie. See more here.

Voldemort in the films

In Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone he is merely a face on the back of Quirrell's head. This was achieved by computer generated imagery voiced by Richard Bremmer. In that film, he was also shown in a flashback sequence when he arrives at the home of James and Lily Potter to kill them. In this scene Voldemort is played by Ian Hart, the actor who played Quirrell in the same film.

In Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, which is the first time Voldemort will be seen in his actual physical form, he will be played by Ralph Fiennes. The assumption that this casting will be preserved in the filming of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix has been supported by an interview with Fiennes.

Characters seem less touchy about hearing Voldemort's name in the films than in the books.
