Ryan Reynolds’ Deadpool Co-Star Matthew Macfadyen Cast as Voldemort in New Harry Potter Audiobooks
Hey, have you heard about the latest Harry Potter news? It’s pretty exciting! A brand-new full-cast audiobook series for all seven Harry Potter books has just been announced, and the lineup of voices is absolutely star-studded. What’s really caught people’s attention is that Matthew Macfadyen, who you might know from the recent Deadpool movie where he played Paradox, has been cast as Lord Voldemort. Yeah, the big bad of the wizarding world is voiced by an actor who worked alongside Ryan Reynolds in Deadpool — how cool is that?
This new audiobook series is being produced by Pottermore Publishing and Audible. It promises an immersive experience with original music, real-world sound effects, and over 200 actors lending their voices to bring J.K. Rowling’s wizarding world to life like never before. So instead of just one narrator, you’re getting a full cast, which makes it feel more like an audio drama than a traditional audiobook.
For the young trio—Harry, Ron, and Hermione—there will be two sets of voice actors. The first three audiobooks feature Frankie Treadaway as Harry, Max Lester as Ron, and Arabella Stanton as Hermione. Interestingly, Arabella Stanton is also playing Hermione in the upcoming HBO Harry Potter series, which fans seem to love. From the fourth book onwards, new actors take over these roles.
