This week's issue of Entertainment Weekly features The 122 People & Things we Love This Summer - The Must List. Included on the list at number 13 is Ralph Fiennes, who will be portraying Lord Voldemort in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire in November and Harry Potter illustrator Mary GrandPré, at number 69. The magazine also has a small tidbitopens in new window on the selling of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.

Ralph on Lord Voldemort:

Immoral Fixation: So how does one play the incarnation of evil? "Good question," says Fiennes, laughing. "My inclination was to underplay it, but you can't underplay Voldemort. He is evil. What I wanted was a you-never-know-what-he'll-do-next quality. My nephews and nieces visited the set-- they were quite taken aback. Probably because I was bald."

Scans of Ralph's article are hereopens in new window and hereopens in new window.

Mary GrandPré must haveopens in new window:

Not Tonight, Honey, I Have a Confidentiality Agreement: "[My husband] leaves me alone. He knows I could get into big trouble if I shared secrets.... He's a fan, though. He reads them after they come out."

The current issue of the magazine is on sale now. Thanks to Page for the tip and the scans.

Hey, can anyone tell me what other movies Ralp Fiennes has been in. He looks sooooo familiar, I just don't know where I have seen him before. I'm sure he will do great. Can't wait for the movie. Looks like it will be the best yet.

mr feinnes will be excellent as voldemort and they both have names which confuse me when it's time to pronounce them!
as to the illustrator's dilemma - I wish that i had such problems:)

Thats cool even though he plays a bad guy this will also give more publicity for the movie so more people can see it.

Nice, i think it all helps with all the hype about the next book and movie coming out (not that the series is hurting for any excitement). :)

He's going to be so awesome as Voldemort, i think, we probably wont really recognise him though, because all of the makeup and special effects stuff will have to happen. GOF is going to be so great!

He is gonna be the perfect person to play this part. He morphs into the character he plays well and I think he'd look cool evil. :)

Ralph definitely has an evil air to him, with a proper sneer on his face- he's exactly what I pictured Voldemort to look like.

I saw Ralph Fiennes in another movie lately... I think it was Schindlers List... we saw it in History Class. Brilliant actor, though.

He looks quite a lot like Christian Coulson, and plus hes a wicked actor. Should be good, and if its not, then woe betide him.
