18) Ralph Fiennes

Ralph Fiennes's terrifying depiction of Lord Voldemort in the Harry Potter series is characterized by a shrill, whispery timbre of menace. In truth, Fiennes's voice is more richly textured, with a quiet, measured quality that reflects his classical training. He has described modulating the voice to create Voldemort, to be serpentine. Recently, in The Menu, Fiennes was able to use a sharp, authoritative tone that suited his role as an intimidating chef, which proved to be a perfect fit for his voice.
