The star of the beloved Harry Potter series, Ralph Fiennes, has taken on a new and exciting role in the upcoming movie, The Return. In a drastic change from his usual appearance, the 61-year-old British actor has transformed into a rugged and unkempt Greek King.
Fans were given a sneak peek of Fiennes' new look in the recently released trailer for The Return. In this epic film adaptation of Homer's Odyssey, Fiennes portrays the legendary hero Odysseus, who has been away from his kingdom of Ithaca for over 20 years as he fought in the Trojan war. The movie also stars Juliette Binoche as Odysseus' faithful and patient wife, Penelope.
The trailer has caused quite a stir among fans, with many praising Fiennes' incredible transformation for the role. Comments on the trailer on YouTube have been flooded with excitement and admiration for the actor's dedication to his craft.
But this is not the first time Fiennes has undergone a physical transformation for a role. The actor is also known for his portrayal of M in the James Bond series, where he sported a more polished look with the help of CGI and prosthetics.
Interestingly, The Return marks the second time Fiennes and Binoche have worked together, 28 years after their appearance in the critically acclaimed film, The English Patient. With nine Academy Award wins, including Best Picture and Best Director, expectations are high for their reunion on screen.
Aside from The Return, Fiennes is also set to star in the highly anticipated drama, Conclave. Directed by Edward Berger and based on the 2016 novel by Robert Harris, the film follows Cardinal Lawrence as he navigates the complex process of selecting the next Pope and uncovers shocking truths about the potential candidates.
With both The Return and Conclave set to be released in the coming months, Fiennes will surely have a busy winter promoting his two drama-filled films. The Return is set to hit theaters on December 6, while Conclave will be released at the end of this month.
