We’re now just six months away from HBO’s long-awaited live-action Harry Potter series, and although the controversy surrounding franchise creator J.K. Rowling hasn’t gone quiet, neither has the hype for what feels like the perfect format to adapt all seven novels. Dominic McLaughlin will step into the shoes of the titular Chosen One, and if Daniel Radcliffe‘s career is anything to go by, he should expect to become a global superstar very soon.
But it isn’t just Radcliffe who made a name for himself as a star of Harry Potter, with almost every role praised for being perfectly cast. Alongside the likes of Michael Gambon as Dumbledore and Rupert Grint as Ron Weasley, the iconic Ralph Fiennes stole almost every scene he was in as Lord Voldemort, delivering one of cinema’s most famous evil performances in the process. But it isn’t just the Harry Potter franchise that has received the best of Fiennes, with an impressive recent performance of his about to be available on Netflix.
In The Choral, directed by Nicholas Hytner, Fiennes stars as Dr. Guthrie, alongside a talented supporting cast that includes Roger Allam, Mark Addy, and Simon Russell Beale. This is Fiennes’ second performance as a Doctor in a row, although as Dr. Kelson in 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, he goes through an altogether different journey of discovery. If you’ve yet to see this war drama gem, The Choral will be available to stream on Netflix on July 2.
