If you’re gonna reach for a star...
reach for the lowest one you can.

Can't have him be too old, that will scare away the four quadrants, it's same reason why you can't make a female superhero movie. Hollywood logic will never fail!

Although, Leto at least is older by a decade than most of the other Avengers (save for Robert Downey Jr.), it's just that he looks so much younger. Dude's like an ethereal elven creature or something. I'm sure he'd knock the role out of the park but a Dr. Strange who has much more of an age gap between him and the rest of the heroes is just more interesting.

too bad Daniel Day lewis is too old. Otherwise he'd probably be perfect for the role of Strange.

Lets just face it........ Johnny Depp

You hate it, I damn sure hate it, but if he wants it, they'll give it to him.

I'll take the b8, m8

Keanu does not have the range to play Doctor Strange, plain and simple. You gotta have somebody able to take a journey from narcissistic surgeon for hire (and I'm not talking like Dr. House, who was at least willing to help if the case was interesting, I'm talking a real mercenary son of a bitch) to guy who loses it all and spends everything he has to get it back, to student relearning everything he's ever learned in life, to mystic taking his first great steps, to Sorcerer Supreme. You've got to do that story in one movie, because we can't survive without origin stories apparently. Keanu couldn't do character arc that convincing over three movies, much less one.

As for Johnny Depp, I'll take my Strange without facepaint or fake teeth or a bird on his head or whatever Depp would add to the costume because he's more interested in playing a funny looking character than actually acting these days.

EDIT: GODDAMMIT

Nevermind, there's nothing I can do

What a way to go, but have no fear
No one's getting out of here alive
This time
It's a shame we have to disappear
No one's getting out of here alive
This time, this time, this time

It's to easy and they're both over-exposed Ice, I know they can do better.

Get out of my brain.....

Depp is a good actor, but he tends to like weird characters (I would say interesting, but some of his choices are just bad) And I feel Strange isn't weird enough for him and he would turn the character into something it doesn't need (like his willy wonka).

Aiden gillen(Lityle finger) would be good too (he's newsrama #1 choice). And Iced you have to be trolling if you are suggesting keanu, he is extremely dull in emotion or charisma. And would be a very flat Strange.

... those are terrible choices.

Depp doesn't act anymore, he just coasts off charisma and fancy hats and or makeup. Which actually works for something like Jack Sparrow, but a Doctor Strange movie would require actual heavy lifting and not just wacky snarky pirate guy.

And Keanu Reeves just seems like a disastrous fit for this; he has a certain range and excels at playing that (and there is no shame in doing that), but Doctor Strange is going to be a really tough role (if they do it right, at least). One has to believably play the complete and utter asshole doctor who slowly and slowly matures and becomes a defender of planet, and make that a believable and coherent transition.

Also it just doesn't seem likely that Marvel would pony up the salaries those two actors would merit; they've always gone with relative unknowns (or someone like RDJ who star had faded and wasn't really getting work). Reeves and Depp would start off with the salaries RDJ is getting now, and Marvel is notoriously stingy in that regard.

plus, marvel does not own the iamge of deep or reeves, so haivng them become iconic marvel characters would be a big problem by itself (yes I know I phrased it horribly, but it's also related to the thing that is going on wiht the F4).

This is going to be very entertaining.

Just to churn up that rumor mill a little more: Tom Hardy and Benedict Cumberbatch may also be under consideration for the Sorcerer Supreme.

Cumberbatch?.....I guess he'd work, but why not Andrew Lincoln? The dude is goooooood and his star is rising fast.

Edit:
He was in "Gangster No. 1" as Maxie King, and that TV show.....Walking......Walking somthing

Andrew Lincoln's Southern accent is unbelievably awful and I haven't seen him do any acting besides but glare at things for about 3 years straight.

I don't want him anywhere near Strange.

Of the two I'd prefer Hardy. The look would be all wrong, but boy could he do the role justice. Cumberbatch would have a close enough look, but I'm kind of sick of him. Willing to admit that's probably just me being mad at STD and the season finale of Sherlock.
