Cillian Murphy turns to Voldemort Casting Rumors for the TV series Harry Potter

THE Harry Potter The universe is returning to the screen with the imminent television adaptation of HBO and the fans have hypothesized tirelessly on those who could enter some of the most iconic roles.

One of the wildest voices that float recently was that Cillian Murphy He could face Lord Voldemort. Now, the Oppenheimer’s star has spoken and put the record.

While joining the Podcast Happy Sad confused, Murphy has admitted to being aware of the chatter of the fans, but insists that there is no truth.

“No, my children occasionally show me, but no, I don’t know anything,” Murphy explained. He continued to clarify why he would probably never have entered the Voldemort shoes:

“I also want to say, it is really difficult to follow anything Ralph Fiennes ago. Man is an absolute acting legend. So, good luck to anyone who manages to fill those shoes. “

Murphy’s reluctance makes sense. Ralph Fiennes He left a lasting impression like The Dark Lord through the original film series and trying to overcome that performance would not be a small task.

However, the idea of ​​Murphy who plays Voldemort has captured enough traction that even Harry Potter and the wizard stone director Chris Columbus Plined, saying: “Well, Cillian is one of my favorite actors, so it would be surprising”.

Murphy’s suggestion came out during a past interview and Fiennes replied, saying: “Cillian is a fantastic actor. This is a wonderful suggestion. I would be everything in favor of Cillian. Yes.”

At this point, the role of Voldemort has not been chosen for the series, which is logical since the villain does not appear completely Harry Potter and the wizard stone. This gives HBO a lot of time to find the right actor to enter the role before the show debut.

The first season of Harry Potter should be previewed until 2027, so fans still have a long wait in advance to see who will rise – or slip – in the role of the most feared magician in the world of magicians.
