would be excellent.
Doctor Strange
Character » Doctor Strange appears in 4903 issues.
Dr. Stephen Strange was once a gifted but egotistical surgeon who sought out the Ancient One to heal his hands after they were wounded in a car accident. Instead, the Ancient One trained him to become Master of the Mystic Arts and the Sorcerer Supreme of Earth.
Could Joaquin Phoenix Be Playing Doctor Strange?
I added on the Eye of Agamotto for the finishing touch.
Behold. (The beard is horrible because I did it pretty quick

Wow! You did an awesome job editing that! It looks really cool.
@kittyparker13: Thanks! I may also do Joaquin.
@deathstroke02: Nice, I hope you do! :)
@deathstroke02: Good job! They both can look a lot like Doctor Strange. Who would you prefer?
@kittyparker13: Thank you. I would prefer Benedict, just because of his Sherlock awesomeness
What about you?
@deathstroke02: I haven't watched anything with Joaquin, so I don't know what his acting style is like. Based off of appearance alone, I think he looks more like Doctor Strange. However, Benedict is a spectacular actor who made a perfect Sherlock. So, I don't know, I think I'd be happy with either.
@kittyparker13: Me too. And Joaquin is a pretty good actor, in my opinion, so that shouldn't be a problem.
@yung_ancient_one: Luke Evans perhaps?
Yeah... yeah. I can see him pulling off the "look" I'm looking for. However, he'll have to grow an epic beard. I haven't seen him with a beard. Not a mustache but a beard. Either way, I have faith that MARVEL will cast the right person. They haven't failed so far. (+)
My list had depp, evans, and viggo. But now, I like huston. I really really like him in the role. Phoenix would still be great in the role though. He's a big name. I always thought strange had to be a big name. But now, marvel can't miss so why not huston.
I'm not trying to hate but I would prefer someone else. I personally want Strange to look something like this.
I don't think Phoenix has the "look" I'm looking for. However, Robert Downey JR, Dave Bautista, and others have shown me that they can have a different "look" than what I am expecting and knock it out the park.
I would prefer if Jared Leto would play as Doctor Strange. However, I do not see him accepting this role due to possible commitment.
I love Cumberbatch but I do not see him as Strange either. I would like to see him be someone else. Captain Brittain maybe? No? Okay. Union Jack? No? ok. AHAA!
Black KNight? Yeah? No?... Really? No?... Okay. (+)
Yup. Agree. Retweet. I have a tattoo of his band 30 Seconds to Mars. Dudes my idol. Though, he wont be. Pretty sure he's focusing more on music & hes still on a ridiculous tour. No Strange for Jared.
Benedict could play like, not Strange. He's cool as Sherlock but he looks nothing like Strange.
Phoenix, Nah.
Johnnie Depp wouldve been the most astounding choice.
@iragexcudder: Yeah. I agree. I think he would do it if it wasn't for the possible commitment as I stated. He would prefer to focus on music and as far as I've seen he'll do one flick then, music, music music. Therefore, I can see him doing one Dr. Strange film but not wanting to do another one. I think MARVEL plans on making Dr. Strange part of the Avengers or if not the Defenders so whoever gets casted for the role we'll probably see them on a Avengers film or Defenders show.
Can you imagine Jared Leto as Strange though? I can picture him with his long hair all messed up with his epic beard in a dark room moving his hands in circles creating a blue lightiningish flame. (+)
@yung_ancient_one: I feel like Leto would kill it, that's my personal opinion though. He's one hell of an actor, did you see or hear how he prepped for Dallas Buyers Club? Dude spent time with transexuals to see how they acted/spoke/reacted so on and so forth, but I do believe he'd be a great strange. He's old enough too haha

I didn't hear about that but I believe it. I've seen him gain weight for his other role. I'm not a huge fan so I'm not familiar with everything he does. However, I do remember hearing that he gained a lot of weight for a role and then quickly took it off. If he's dedicated, he's devoted completely to the task. (+)
@yung_ancient_one: yeah he's one to look up to for sure, very good moraled human being too. Ever see Mr. Nobody?
Whilst I still prefer Depp, there is no chance I would be against this decision. If he becomes Dr. Strange, he has my 100% full support. Great actor and looks the part.
I haven't finished it. It was trippy though. I'm sure it has a deep meaning, a moral to its story. I just haven't made the time to finish it. The film is quite long in my opinion but then again, I can't watch movies like I used to. (+)
@yung_ancient_one: very long and sophisticated movie. Pay attention to it, you'll most likely be woed
