What do you think of the official teaser trailer?
Interesting fact: You probably know Ralph Fiennes plays Voldemort. 11-year old Tom Riddle is played by Fiennes’ nephew, Hero Fiennes-Tiffin.
Update: Unfortunately, we will now have to wait until next summer for the next installment in the Harry Potter series. Warner Brothers recently pushed the premier back to July 17, 2009. Here’s the story: http://hollywoodinsider.ew.com/2008/08/news-flash-harr.html.
