Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince: Meet Young Riddle
While one of the new stills from Half-Blood Prince shows Dumbledore creating a ring of fire to defend against the undead, the second shot gives us our first look at young Tom Riddle. If you don't know who Tom Riddle is, you probably shouldn't be reading this.
In the heat of battle: Dumbledore (Michael Gambon) and Harry have gone on a perilous journey into a cave filled with dark magic and are attacked by Inferi, reanimated and haunted dead people. Dumbledore creates a firestorm to fend off the dangerous spooky creatures. "It's almost a biblical image," says Yates. "He's a bit like Charlton Heston when he parts the Red Sea."
Young Tom Riddle as played by Fiennes-Tiffin
If you caught the name of the young actor playing young Riddle, Fiennes-Tiffin, one might find it to be coincidence that the actors who play young Riddle and old Riddle share a name. The fact of the matter is that Fiennes-Tiffin is the nephew of Ralph Fiennes, hence the striking resemblence.
