Who will be the MCU Mr. Sinister?

Bit predictable though. Kind of in that vein of when every villain was fan casted as Gary oldman, Alan rickman, Jason Isaacs…

And every hero was fassbender and elba

I think Matthew Goode would be able to pull of a good Sinister.

 

[Venom 1988]

I never found Sinister interesting until Gillen and Hickman. So my pick is Matt Berry and no this isn't a joke lol.

Not really predictable as Javier Bardem looks nothing like Mr. Sinister.

Yes, I'm sure there's someone who looks closer to a pale white vampire with red eyes.

I won't be surprised if its true. Magneto, the Brotherhood, Sentinels, Apocalypse and Cassandra Nova have been used before. Mr. Sinister is the largest X-Men villain who have yet to appear in the movies.

What about Murray Bartlett for Sinister?

 

[Silvermoth]

He would be cool. I would love to see him as Stryfe

 

[psylockolussus]

I don't know him. But looks wise, sure!
