Either wear a tuque or invest in an actual brim.

I've gone back and noted all of the names people have mentioned for Doctor Strange since this thread was resurrected. This is the list (thus far) for a new poll:

Richard Armitage
Adrian Brody
Jim Caviezel
Nikolaj Coster-Waldau
Benedict Cumberbatch
Patrick Dempsey
Jean Dujardin
Joel Edgerton
Jude Law
Viggo Mortensen
Liam Neeson
Timothy Olyphant
Clive Owen
Lee Pace
Joachim Phoenix

Brian Braddock · 02-13-2013, 06:02 AM

My guess is either Brody or Armitage win the role.

By a nose.

I'd like to throw in my man Oscar Isaac.

And Christoph Waltz could be brilliant if they go older.

don't forget michael sheen

SlamAdams · 02-19-2013, 06:50 PM

Michael Sheen would be a good choice for sure.

Brian Braddock · 02-20-2013, 06:01 AM

Yup, another sterling choice.

Mr. Dent · 02-20-2013, 06:46 AM

I haven't seen anyone mention Liam Neeson.

Majik1387 · 02-20-2013, 11:15 AM

Good, because he needs to stay away from the movie.

Hawkingbird · 02-20-2013, 02:07 PM

Yeah, he's a legend but not a Doctor Strange.

How about Mark Strong?

Doctor Strange really has the best casting net of any Marvel character. Any actor 40-55 is on the table, and that's honestly the biggest sweet spots for great actors right now.

johnrain · 02-22-2013, 01:08 AM

Daniel Radcliffe.

Mark Strong definitely has the commanding screen presence. I'll endorse that.

pr0xyt0xin · 02-22-2013, 01:19 AM

Fred Armisen

Sawyer · 02-22-2013, 01:25 AM

Adam Sandler

Parker Wayne · 02-22-2013, 01:30 AM

Yeah, I was just wondering if people knew that people who don't have Goatee's or facial could be cast also (and grow it).

Bushwood · 02-23-2013, 09:23 PM

Just throwing a name out that i think would fit Strange...Alexander Skarsgard. He's got the right mix of physical skills, a brooding demeanor, the wit to cut through that dark persona and he's in the right age and fame bracket where he would be on marvels radar.

xeno000 · 03-02-2013, 03:25 PM

Revised Poll choices (subject to change):

Richard Armitage
Adrian Brody
Jim Caviezel
Nikolaj Coster-Waldau
Benedict Cumberbatch
John Cusack**
Patrick Dempsey
David Duchovny**
Jean Dujardin
Joel Edgerton
John Hawkes**
Oscar Isaac*
Jason Isaacs**
Jude Law
Jeffrey Dean Morgan**
Viggo Mortensen
Liam Neeson
Timothy Olyphant
Clive Owen
Lee Pace
Joachin Phoenix
Michael Sheen*
Alexander Skarsgard*
Mark Strong*
Karl Urban***
Christoph Waltz**

I edited the original list to add Isaac, Sheen, Skarsgard and Strong. The list is in alpha order for the sake of fairness. Someone said Liam Neeson wasn't mentioned, but he has been by several people and was always on the revised list.

So now we have twenty-five choices for a new poll. Polls here can have up to 40 options, I believe, so if anyone wants to throw other (credible) names out there, they can be added. Since this thread was started five years ago I am going to ask the mods if a new poll can be started that uses the updated list. This thread is on its last legs, anyway. Post additional actors you'd like to see play Stephen Strange, and if I get permission to post a new poll thread they'll be added.

Now I have to decide whether the poll should be multiple choice. Thoughts?

I liked Viggo for Dr. Strange but honestly I think he's a bit too old now.

Actually, I can really dig it. Most people don't remember him from Captain America anyways, I think it could work.

MessiahDecoy123 · 03-02-2013, 04:50 PM

Multiple choice poll please.

But ask people to vote for only their top three choices.

Whiskey Tango · 03-02-2013, 06:01 PM

Just a few suggestions in the interest of filling out the poll. Just disregard whoever sucks.

Jason Isaacs

John Hawkes

John Cusack

Jeffrey Dean Morgan

David Duchovny

probably not lol

edit: Didn't realize Isaacs was in the old poll.
