Ralph Fiennes / Harry Potter:
Attention, Potterheads! After eagerly waiting for three entire films, we were finally treated to the much-anticipated reveal of Voldemort’s appearance in the Harry Potter movies. The makeup team’s dedication knew no bounds as they embarked on this transformative journey. Their mission was to make Ralph Fiennes, who portrayed Voldemort, look otherworldly. They accomplished this by rendering his skin almost see-through and, astonishingly, digitally editing out his nose.
Taking it a step further, the makeup artists reshaped Voldemort’s nostrils into slits, adding a serpentine quality to his visage. This attention to detail extended to using eyebrow blockers, fake teeth, fake nails, and vein tattoos, all contributing to creating the fearsome Dark Lord. The meticulous work of the makeup team brought Voldemort to life in a way that sent shivers down our spines and truly enriched the cinematic experience for Potter fans worldwide.
