New Harry Potter Trailer Reveals Boy Voldemort

When Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince hits theaters Nov. 21, audiences will see more of the evil wizard Voldemort than they ever did before – including what he looked like as an
11-year-old boy.
And if his childhood incarnation bears an uncanny resemblance to his adult self, it's not just lucky casting. Young Voldemort is played by Hero Fiennes-Tiffin, the 10-year-old nephew of Ralph Fiennes, who has played He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named throughout most of the movie series.
"Hero was very focused and disciplined," director David Yates says in USA Today. "It was an advantage that he looked very similar to Ralph. ... But primarily I went for Hero because of this wonderful haunted quality that seemed to bring Tom Riddle alive
on-screen for us."

Tinkerbell has topped more than 200 applicants – including Tarzan's faithful companion, Cheetah – for a star on Hollywood Boulevard's Walk of Fame.
"There was a big campaign for Cheetah but it just didn't happen," a spokesperson for the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce tells PEOPLE. "He is welcome to apply again next year."
Peter Pan's pixie pal becomes the fifth animated character to earn a place on the city sidewalk, joining such fellow Disney all-stars as Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Winnie the Pooh and Snow White.
Other 2009 inductees will include Hugh Jackman, Cameron Diaz, Ralph Fiennes and the Village People.
