News Topical, Digital Desk : Harry Potter is a film series that has been widely loved not only abroad but also in India. Fans were disappointed when HBO announced it would bring this popular film to television. From Harry Potter to Hermione Granger, the characters will now be portrayed in completely different roles.
Following the reveal of Dominic's Harry Potter look, news of another famous character from the film series, Voldemort, getting a makeover has created a stir on social media. Reports suggest that in HBO's upcoming television adaptation of "The Philosopher's Stone," an actress, not an actor, will be playing the villain.
Auditions are underway for the role of Voldemort.
Entertainment scooper Daniel Richtman shared the information on his Instagram account, saying, “They're auditioning both men and women for the role of Voldemort in the Harry Potter series, so it's possible we might see a female Voldemort in the TV series this time.”
According to reports, the makers are trying to present a new perspective on the wizarding world in this reboot, with the Dark Lord being introduced in an even more powerful way than in the main film, with flashbacks and his obsession with Professor Quirrell, played by Ralph Fiennes in the original Harry Potter film series.
Fans expressed their disappointment on social media.
Following this news, social media has been divided over the gender reassignment of Harry Potter villain Voldemort. While some are excited to see "Lady Voldemort," others want Ralph to play the character. One user expressed disappointment, writing, “No, thank you. I don't care if it sounds sexist, but Voldemort shouldn't be a female character. I'll ruin everything if they do that.”
Another user wrote, "I present to you the lady who should not be named Voldemort." Another user wrote, "There are rumors of a woman playing Voldemort in the HBO Max HP TV series, what nonsense is this?
