The voice of Voldemort speaks again - Summary:
Richard Bremmer, who was the voice of Voldemort in Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone speaks out Article:
Richard Bremmer, who was the voice of Voldemort in Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, told The Sunday Herald that he was originally hired to play Voldemort, but has been pushed out of the films by "the celebrity demands of Hollywood."
"I can only assume they wanted more of a Hollywood name," he said. "Originally, I was cast as Voldemort, but they changed it during the process and gave me the credit for He Who Must Not Be Named."
Bremmer said he enjoyed being in the film, but believes that financial and Hollywood pressures on the film-makers led to his being pushed aside. | |

Last I heard Ralph Fiennes was in talks to play Voldemort. If that's true, I hope he gets it. He's done excellent villains (see him in Schlindler's List).

He sounds bitter. Maybe he resents the fact that they want a visual actor now and not just a voice.
I still think Patrick Stewart would be awesome. I'm just glad the Rowan Atkinson rumors are completely fabricated.

I wodner who the new guy will be? I'm thinking it won't matter that much though... I mean, he'll need tons of make-up anyway.

Wait. I'm sorry, but was there an actual rule that said only British actors could be in the movie? Not to sound rude or anyhting, but that seems like a load of rubbish. It shouldn't matter what nationality an actor is. What should matter is quality.

No. It does matter. You can't have an all British school were only British children attend and have an American in it. Even if they tried to fake the accent it wouldn't sound right. JK said that she only wanted British actors in it. So, it does matter.

Thats sad. :/
He probably have worked really hard on the films even though it was only his voice. It would be really dis-appointing if they just cut you out like that.
I mean in the Lord of the Ring films, Andy Serkis first started out as a voice then he had a chance to act in the last film. Even though it was only for few minutes. That was really nice to see. Personally, to me, this whole show business and Hollywood favoring stuff is too cruel to small reputated actors and actresses.

~*~Anah~*~ very true very true, look at elijah wood in LOTR, hes american and he could make a british accent so u couldn't even tell if hes american. i think thats extremely stupid. the only reason they had to have britsh actors for harry, ron and hermione ws because they were too small to try to make there accent british.

No American will be allowed in a Harry Potter film and if you don't like it then to bad. Get over it.

I could probably care less. I mean I'm not American myself, why should it matter to me right? But it's still just the idea that bothers. And I'm not saying get the entire cast to be American. That's just stupid. What I am saying is that it's only ONE character. It's almost parallel to something I was talking to my step-mother about last night. Form over function ... it's always a stupid idea.

Well..Jk wrote the books, and she wants the actors to be British..therefore, all the actors are British. End of story.
Anyways, this guy sounds a bit put out about not returning as Voldemort..I probably would be too! But I guess they just wanted a bigger name in Hollywood.
