The young Voldermorts from Harry Potter are getting hotter than ever (Bai trash)

18 years has passed since “The Philosopher's Stone” but these Tom Riddle actors always know how to attract us.

Lord Voldemort is perhaps the most notorious Dark wizard ever known and the most powerful and dangerous of all time. He appears in seven Harry Potter films and there are several actors who shared the role of "the most evil wizard for hundreds and hundreds of years". The main Dark Lord character has been famously played by Ralph Fiennes since the first film came out almost two decades ago. But three other actors played the villain back when he was a young wizard known as Tom Riddle - and they're now very hot.

Christian Coulson

Christian Coulson is the actor who portrayed the young Tom Riddle in the “Chamber of Secrets”. This movie debuted in 2002, when Coulson was 23 years old, and he played a convincing 16-year-old Tom Riddle thanks to his cute baby face.

Coulson was the second person auditioned out of more than 2,000 and he was called back multiple times before being offered the role. Although he had had small parts in a couple films up to that point, he says he had never before been on a “set of that level or a project of that magnitude”. However, in 2007, director David Yates indicated that Coulson would not reprise his role in “Half-Blood Prince”, since, at 29, he was now too old.

Now Christian looks as dapper as ever, and since 2010 he has lived in New York working as an actor and director.

Hero Fiennes-Tiffin

The next actor to play the character was Hero Fiennes-Tiffin, the real life nephew of Ralph. He played the creepy eleven-year-old in the “Half-Blood Prince” back when he was living in an orphanage and had yet to experience the wizarding world.

Director David Yates said Fiennes-Tiffin became Tom Riddle due to his ability to find "the darker space" in his line readings. Yates said he did not get the role due to his relation to Ralph Fiennes but admitted the family resemblance was "a clincher".

Fiennes-Tiffin, now 21, has continued to act and recently made use of his handsome looks in new film “After”.

Frank Dillane

Finally, the third young Voldemort star is Frank Dillane, who is also still an actor. He was born in 1991, best known for his portrayal of Nick Clark on “Fear the Walking Dead”, and for playing Tom Riddle in the “Half-Blood Prince” and the “Deathly Hallows”. His father, Stephen Dillane, has starred in numerous movies and TV series (e.g., Game of Thrones and The Tunnel). However, Frank Dillane never be able to leave the Potter role behind "whatever I do".

It's difficult for Frank Dillane to get out of the role in Harry Potter

The actor says told Radio Times in 2016: "It's funny. Whatever I do, I'll always be remembered for Tom Riddle! It was great to play such an incredible part, but it was a very short scene. I wasn't in the film for that long". It is inevitable because the Dark Lord was kind of a celebrity that everyone looks at.
