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.

I like the name Ralph. I would have given him #13 just for the name. Kudos to RALPH and Mary.

Oh, I was hoping that there'd be something new so I wouldnt have to double post but, ...

OK!!! I went to see Madagasca after school today with some mates (I know, how childish), but as I was buying the tickets and I looked inside the booth and finally they had the GoF fire poster up and I like, jumped really high in the air and started squelling! My friends thought I was mad, but thats nothing compared to the face that the ticket dude pulled ... It was so funny ... I just had to say that they do have posters up, though the trailer was still lacking from the screen ...

I read about this yesterday, but I didn't see the comments Mr. Levine made...which after reading them...well...I get chills! :D But, what really got me was the "Gosh Hermione...you go girl part!" truly funny and..inspiring?(that and imagining Mr. Levine saying 'you go girl' anyway...) I can't wait for the book to come out! 28 days more days!

It's going to be so weird to have such a handsome man playing Lord Voldemort. I wonder what he looks like in costume? Scary? Attractive? Disturbing? Repulsive? All of the above?

Ralph Fiennes is much too good looking to play LV, but he's such a remarkable actor I bet he will make it work.

I think they picked a great actor to play this role. He has played bad guys before, and pulled it off really well. He was kind of scary in the Dragon.
