So much color. Is it really necessary?

 

[Mudcrab]

Soon.

 

[Violet_0]

Cumberbatch's "beard" looks identical to my "beard" when I go unshaved for a while, neat

The DC Cinematic Universe is that way. ---->

I take it you haven't read much Doctor Strange.

 

[Fury451]

The rumors are Night Nurse and Dormammu.

Edit: beaten like a damn fiddle

Rosario Dawson is already Night Nurse though....?

 

[Penguin]

Looking pretty cool

 

[Mudcrab]

So much color. Is it really necessary?

Yeah maybe they should make Doctor Strange little more grounded.

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

Better on a new page.

...

C'mon, GOB, keep your excitement in check.

 

[Currygan]

looking really good

 

[Slayven]

Gaian Aura Strange is the opposite of grounded. Dude created a whole new system of magic that made major gods and demons sweat.

Quinn was on that stuff.

 

[Sibersk Esto]

Ditko Dr Strange is my shit

 

[Violet_0]

it will be Strange watching Cumberbatch outact the rest of the Marvel cast against the wall when the next Avengers comes out

Nah......nah.

 

[Neoxon]

It's beautiful

 

[Currygan]

yes, it is

 

[Neoxon]

Sooooo close

To be fair, Adam Warlock doesn't necessarily need the Soul Stone. Didn't he go without it in the 2008 run of Guardians (where Gunn pulls most of his stuff for the movies, if he pulls anything from the comics)?

 

[DragonSworne]

They picked the wrong actor.

 

[Slayven]

The DC Cinematic Universe is that way. ---->

Jared Stevens will be the DCU Dr.Fate

Worse incarnation of Adam Warlock ever. Fuck that quantum magic bullshit right in the ear

He doesn't need it, being what he is, he is already poweriful. But he didn't come into his own until he had it.

 

[Neoxon]

So much color. Is it really necessary?

Why yes, yes it is.

 

[Discotheque]

Mark Ruffalo is a better actor than all of them though...

 

[Arkos]

I think that looks pretty badass as someone who knows who Doctor Strange is but not much more. The high collar is so clutch. Cumberbund is such a baller.

 

[Neoxon]

In other news, Mads Mikkelsen is confirmed to be playing the main villain of Doctor Strange.

EDIT: After re-reading the article, he's just playing a regular human. Dormammu is probably being saved for the sequel.

 

[Spiritreaver]

I'm actually hyped now. Finally I get to see another hero I actually like, and he looks good.

 

[Callibretto]

In other news, Mads Mikkelsen is confirmed to be playing the main villain of Doctor Strange. My money's on Dormammu.

is this gonna be one and done villain or someone who's gonna hang around multiple movies ala Loki

 

[Sibersk Esto]

I don't see Mads as a big booming voice abomination from a different dimension, but since Baron Mordo has been cast Dormammu is likely.

 

[Slayven]

Dormammnu is too much fun to waste on a one shot.

 

[Neoxon]

is this gonna be one and done villain or someone who's gonna hang around multiple movies ala Loki

Hopefully they keep Dormammu around if Mads really is him.

 

[F0rneus]

So, where does Mikkelsen’s antagonist fit in, exactly? “Mads’ character is a sorcerer who breaks off into his own sect,” says the Marvel Studios boss. “[He] believes that the Ancient One is just protecting her own power base and that the world may be better off if we were to allow some of these other things through.”

Huh. Not Dormammu eh?

 

[Fury451]

Would be great. Hope they don't squander Mads in a one and done fashion.

Villains, aside from Loki, are far and away the weakest part of the movies in the MCU every time.

 

[Sojgat]

What if he Doom tho?

Spoiler

Let me dream.

 

[Kaizer]

Echoes my sentiments as well, looks pretty badass to me. Knowing Doctor Strange from the cartoons & comics though, Cumberbatch's beard could be a tad thicker, but he looks the part and I'm liking the white in hair.

Other than the character of Doctor Strange himself, I have no knowledge of his story or villians, so this is Guardians of the Galaxy Pt. 2 for me.

 

[Neoxon]

Huh. Not Dormammu eh?

Well, there goes my Dormammu theory. I guess they'll tease Dormammu for the sequel.

 

[Slayven]

Huh. Not Dormammu eh?

Sounds like Mordo or Master Pandemonium

 

[Callibretto]

Huh. Not Dormammu eh?

maybe he got possesed by Dormammu in the end. is that a thing in the comics?

 

[Sibersk Esto]

Chiwetel Ejiofor was cast as Mordo right?

 

[gutter_trash]

too English, Doctor Strange would have been better played by by an actor who can do an American accent

 

[Blader]

I'd rather see Mads on screen than just hear his voice over a CGI flame creature anyway.

 

[Fury451]

What if he Doom tho?

Spoiler

Let me dream.

That would be amazing.

But then reality hits...

Mephisto, that way we can get an in-universe excuse for rebooting Spiderman again

 

[Broken Joystick]

(Not that it's really shocking) but just noticed Feige refers to the Ancient One (Tilda Swinton) as "her".

 

[Sibersk Esto]

Sounds like Mordo or Master Pandemonium

Look out Scarlet Witch

 

[Neoxon]

Sounds like Mordo or Master Pandemonium

We already have Baron Mordo.

 

[KAOz]

...

C'mon, GOB, keep your excitement in check.

Looks like that Strangedude really could show some tricks.

 

[Currygan]

what if Dr Strange is English here

 

[golem]

...so who are McAdams and Mikkelsen playing? Says that's in the magazine.

Although Broussard and Feige are happy to talk about the nature of Mikkelsen’s role, they are not, at present, revealing the actual name of his character. “I’ve seen lots of names thrown around,” says Broussard. “No one has quite picked the name that we’ve chosen for him. It would be fun to conceal that, if we can.”
