Acting career

Hero made his movie debut when he turned 10. The boy starred in the English drama Bigga Than Ben (2008), telling the story of two Russian guys, who come to London seeking adrenaline and luck.

His second role, despite it being a secondary one, made him famous worldwide. Fiennes-Tiffin played the role of young Voldemort in the sixth Harry Potter movie Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (2009). Thousands of young actors auditioned for this part, but finally Hero landed the role.

It’s quite likely that his relatives played their part in that: Voldemort’s role, after his rebirth, was played by Hero’s uncle, Ralph Fiennes. However, the director of the movie, David Yates, declared in an interview that the boy got the role exclusively because of his acting talent during the table read and the ability to drive out everything dark. The physical resemblance between the uncle and his nephew was another deciding factor.

The movie crew was very pleased with Hero’s work. Yates called Fiennes-Tiffin a very goal-oriented and disciplined young actor, who delivered his best interpretation of the mysterious character on screen.

He got his next role only three years afterwards – the high school senior student made an episodic appearance in the war drama Private Peaceful (2012), the events of which take place during World War I in Flandria. Fiennes-Tiffin played the role of the protagonist in his early years; older Charlie Peaceful was played by Jack O’Connell.

When he turned 18, Hero already knew that he wants to pursue a career in the movie industry. He started auditioning actively, but he wasn’t always lucky. More specifically, Hero failed the auditions for Netflix’s Stranger Things, for Dunkirk (2017) and The Hate U Give (2018). However, he still got something. In 2017, director Baz Luhrmann, the mastermind behind Moulin Rouge! (2001) and The Great Gatsby (2013), expressed his interest in Hero’s work. Luhrmann happened to be looking for an actor for his short-length movies for the collaboration of ERDEM and H&M.

The 4-minute movie The Secret Life of Flowers was shot in a suburban mansion, decorated luxuriously with flowers and candles. With the exception of Hero, several other talented actors made an appearance – model Fernando Cabral, the star of Amundsen Ruby Dagnall, Dutch artist Saskia de Brauw, actor Tom Rhys Harries and others. Similarly to Luhrmann’s other movies, The Secret Life of Flowers turned up to be a real masterpiece, with his signature passion and drama.

Hero Fiennes-Tiffin’s personal life

Hero Fiennes-Tiffin prefers to keep his personal life private. Fans aren’t quite sure whether he’s single or not. His social media isn’t helping out much either – on Instagram, he only shares photos with his relatives and friends.

Hero Fiennes-Tiffin now

In April 2019, Jenny Gage’s drama After is released, based on the Anna Todd’s bestseller with the same name. The movie tells the story of two teenagers – shy Tessa (Josephine Langford) and rebellious Hardin (Hero Fiennes-Tiffin), whose strange affair divides their lives into before and after. Strangely enough, initially, Todd’s book was a fanfic involving One Direction’s lead singer, Harry Styles. Anyway, Hardin doesn’t have much resemblance with Harry, and the novel’s plot is not based on facts.
