Voldemort has been cast, and evil, thy name be Ralph Fiennes.

So, we now know who will play the ultimate enemy for Potter in the next few movies. I don’t have a strong opinion on this, but perhaps other people want to comment on who they thought should have been it, or how excited they are about this turn of events in the comments.

UPDDATE: Because I was originally unclear, it is worth mentioning that Voldemort is a character in the phenomenally popular Harry Potter series. Harry’s arch-foe, in fact. If this explanation was needed, you have some reading and/or movie watching to do.
