From a textbook villain to a truly terrifying one.
The Big Picture What makes villains do the awful things they do in the stories we watch? Understanding a villain's backstory shapes how we understand their choices and even the story as a whole. In the process of adaptation from book to film the backstory and motivation of a character can sometimes be oversimplified and distorted. In the Harry Potter movies, Voldemort's motivation is oversimplified and his past is glossed over.
In the movies, we see three elements of Voldemort's past to help us better understand him as a villain. The first is explored in the sixth film, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, regarding young Voldemort's time spent in an orphanage. This experience serves as a foundation for his resentment and desire for power. Through this detail, we learn that Voldemort grew up without parents who loved him or friends who understood him.
Voldemort's mother, named Merope Grant, was a pure-blood witch descendant of Salazar Slytherin. The Gaunts - an ancient wizarding family with a dark lineage - play a pivotal role in shaping Tom Riddle's path toward darkness. Unearthing their troubled past reveals secrets long buried and sheds light on how Voldemort became entangled with pure-blood ideology.
