Ralph Fiennes does a lot of stage work - he has won several awards for projects and I think he's just finished with doing Ibsen in London over the last year. He has a bucket of films coming out over the next while:He is the villain Lord Voldemort in the next Harry Potter film 2005.
He's also starring or supporting in:
The Chumscrubber (is a darkly satiric story about life crumbling in the midst of a seemingly idyllic suburbia) Directed by Arie PosinLead in The White Countess ( Set in 1930s Shanghai, where a blind American diplomat develops a curious relationship with a young Russian refugee who works odd -- and sometimes illicit -- jobs to support members of her dead husband's aristocratic family) Directed by James Ivory. (Merchant-Ivory)
Chromophobia (Unknown) Directed by Marth Fiennes.The Constant Gardener (Ralph Fiennes stars as Kenya-based English diplomat Justin Quayle, whose wife is murdered, along with a man she's suspected of having an affair with, a local human rights activist. When Quayle starts investigating the killings, he discovers a connection between local politicians and a large Western pharmaceutical conglomerate.) Directed by Fernando Meirelles.
Lord Victor Quatermaine in The Wallace & Gromit Movie: Curse of the Wererabbit.
Those are slated for 2005.
2006:
Land of the Blind (A soldier (Fiennes) recounts his relationship with a famous political prisoner (Donald Sutherland) attempting to overthrow their country's totalitarian government). Directed by Robert Edwards.
