Harry Potter: meet young Voldemort

With the Warner Bros publicity machine seeing The Dark Knight safely out of the door, the emphasis is slowly switching to its other blockbuster juggernaut of the year, Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince.

The film, which is due to hit cinemas in November, will dig into the back story of Voldemort, and we’ll meet him as a young boy. The younger version – Tom Riddle - will be played by Hero Fiennes-Tiffin, the nephew of Ralph Fiennes, who plays the older version of the character.

What’s more, a picture has leaked which gives us a first glimpse of Fiennes-Tiffin in the role, ahead of a full trailer which is also expected in the next few hours. Click on the thumbnail at the bottom to see a bigger version of the image.

We’ll post the trailer as soon as we get it…
