It is now confirmed by David Yates, the director of
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, that the role of young Tom Riddle has been cast. Unfortunately, he has left us hanging, for the name of the actor remains unknown, although Yates has described him as “a really interesting kid”.
The story, in Richard Kay’s column for
The Daily Mail, did dig a little deeper, into what should definitely be considered a rumor. Apparently, Titan Tiffin, Ralph Fiennes’ 11-year-old nephew, is presumably cast for the role of the younger Tom Riddle.
Again, this could very probably be one of many rumors, as it hasn’t yet been confirmed by Warner Brothers.
