In a new interview with USA Today Ralph Fiennes talks about playing Lord Voldemort in the Harry Potter films!  Tom Felton, David Yates and Daniel Radcliffe also talk about Ralph.

“He’s really sort of the devil,” says Fiennes, 47. “He’s completely emotionally detached. He has no empathy. You find that in psychopaths.” “It’s about power with Voldemort,” he says. “It’s an aphrodisiac for him. Power makes him feel alive.” “Jo Rowling has always said that the thing that separates Harry from Voldemort is that Harry is not afraid of death,” Radcliffe says.

Director David Yates praises the actor’s ability to nail Voldemort’s mercurial menace. “Where he goes in his eyes is really haunting.”

And no matter the lights, cameras and presence of dozens of crewmembers, Radcliffe was consistently unsettled by Fiennes. “When Ralph’s doing his Voldemort stuff, he just really freaks me out.”

Tom Felton, who plays Draco Malfoy, says he also was unnerved. “Ralph is mesmerizing,” Felton says. “He never did two takes the same. … I had to keep reminding myself: ‘Stay in character. Don’t just sit there and watch his performance.’ He dominates scenes in the film, and it’s like that off the set as well,” Felton says. “He’s quite a charming guy. And when he opens his mouth, people listen. Let’s put it this way: No one talks over him.”
