Ralph Fiennes

2014

Actor

For younger generations, he may be best known as Voldemort in the Harry Potter films, but Ralph Fiennes is, of course, much more than a dark wizard. An actor of great range, he has portrayed characters as diverse as Heathcliff in Wuthering Heights (1992), Lenny Nero in Kathryn Bigelow’s Strange Days (1996), and Count Laszlo in The English Patient, alongside roles in Schindler’s List (1993) and Wes Anderson’s The Grand Budapest Hotel (2014).

Fiennes visited Göteborg Film Festival in 2014 with the film The Invisible Woman and received that year’s Honorary Dragon Award.
