Cillian Murphy has dismissed rumors that he will play Voldemort in the upcoming HBO Harry Potter TV series, praising Ralph Fiennes' portrayal and indicating he has no involvement in the project. The series is set to debut in 2027 with new cast members for the main characters.
Ralph Fiennes, who originally portrayed Voldemort in the "Harry Potter" films, has expressed his support for Cillian Murphy potentially taking over the role in HBO's upcoming TV series adaptation. Fiennes praised Murphy as a fantastic actor and welcomed the idea during an interview. While Fiennes has not confirmed his return to the series, he has previously shown interest in reprising his role. The series is also rumored to be considering Mark Rylance for the role of Dumbledore.
Voldemort's decision to use Harry Potter's blood for his resurrection was a massive gamble that could have cost him everything he had achieved. The magical protection from Lily Potter's blood in her son's veins made it extremely painful and dangerous for Voldemort to even touch Harry. Pumping his new body's veins full of that blood could have resulted in his new body being born in intolerable agony and disintegrating just like his two previous ones. It would have been easier and safer to use any other British wizard's blood.
