Ralph Fiennes Doesn't Want Anyone Else Playing Voldemort In Fantastic Beasts
The Fantastic Beasts franchise, which initially seemed to be just a Wizarding World spinoff, has morphed into something of a Harry Potter prequel, trading Harry and Dumbledores battle against Lord Voldemort for Newt and Dumbledores battle against Gellert Grindelwald. Johnny Depps villain seems like he will be the antagonist throughout the five-film series, but if there is an opportunity for Voldemort to show up, actor Ralph Fiennes doesnt want anyone else playing him, as he explained:
I feel a kind of affection for Voldemort. So if there was a world in which Voldemort came back, I would be very possessive about wanting to reprise that.
Ralph Fiennes understandably feels possessive of Lord Voldemort, having played him in four movies over the course of the series. He spent a lot of time inhabiting the Dark Lord and has some affection for his iconic villain. Therefore, as he told BBC Newsnight, Ralph Fiennes would hypothetically want to reprise the role of Voldemort if the character were to return in Fantastic Beasts or some other Wizarding World spinoff versus allowing someone else to take on the mantle.
It is cool to hear that Ralph Fiennes has such a sense of ownership over the Harry Potter villain, especially considering he almost turned down the role. For countless Potterheads that grew up with the films, Ralph Fiennes is Lord Voldemort, both the cinematic version and the face they see when reading J.K. Rowlings novels. Not many people can say that they were a generations Darth Vader in a beloved property, so he understandably wouldnt want to just hand that off.
Of course, despite Ralph Fiennes' possessive feelings about Voldemort, he isnt the only or even the first actor to play He Who Must Not Be Named. In Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone, Richard Bremmer played You-Know-Who when he was living on the back of Professor Quirrells head and in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets actor Christian Coulson played the teenage Tom Riddle that came out of the diary that would prove to be a Horcrux.
In Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, the only film post-Goblet of Fire and Voldemort resurrection that Ralph Fiennes does not appear in, we see a young Tom Riddle in memories in the Pensieve, played by Frank Dillane and Ralph Fiennes own nephew, Hero Fiennes Tiffin. So, although Ralph Fiennes is certainly the most recognizable one, he hasn't been the only Voldemort.
In his discussion with BBC Newsnight, Ralph Fiennes mentioned the Fantastic Beasts films when asked if he could do any more Harry Potter movies because they have done all the books. Although this was just a hypothetical question, and theres no reason to think that Voldemort would show up in Fantastic Beasts, it is an interesting possibility.
If Voldemort did show up he would definitely not be played by Ralph Fiennes, since You-Know-Who would still be a child during the Fantastic Beasts timeline, but he was alive so it is possible. The Fantastic Beasts films will take place over 19 years, from 1926-1945. Tom Riddle goes to Hogwarts in 1938 and he graduated in 1944. Weve already seen something of this time period in Half-Blood Prince, though, so there will likely be no need to rehash those events.
What we havent seen is when Tom murdered his father and grandparents or when he worked at Borgin and Burkes post-graduation, or his time in Albania, but its hard to see how those events would factor into the Fantastic Beasts story beyond just being fan service. Besides, there are already plenty of things for this series to cover, especially after the doozy of a movie that was Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald.
Filming was recently delayed on Fantastic Beasts 3 so we dont know for sure if it will hit in 2020 as originally planned. There are plenty of movies worth seeing this year, though, and you can check them out in our 2019 Release Schedule.

As of right now though, it's uncertain whether Fiennes will ever get the chance to reprise his role. The only movies exploring the Wizarding World currently are the Fantastic Beasts films, which take place in 1927. Voldemort was born in 1926, so even if there would be a substantial time jump, Fiennes might be too old to play Voldemort.
