How hyped are you, /tv/? MARVEL is DOING IT AGAIN!

"Despite set photos popping up online a few weeks ago, Marvel Studios has now announced that production has officially begun on the upcoming Doctor Strange and confirmed the film’s cast. Production on the film is currently set up in London with additional plans to shoot in New York and Hong Kong.

Benedict Cumberbatch stars as the title hero in the film and is joined by Chiwetel Ejiofor as Baron Mordo, Rachel McAdams, and Michael Stuhlbarg, with Mads Mikkelsen, and Tilda Swinton as The Ancient One. Other cast members previously reported to be in the film include Scott Adkins and Amy Landecker.

Scheduled to hit theaters November 4, 2016, Doctor Strange is scripted by Jon Spaihts (Prometheus, Passengers) and directed by Scott Derrickson (The Exorcism of Emily Rose, Deliver Us From Evil). Doctor Strange follows the story of neurosurgeon Doctor Stephen Strange who, after a horrific car accident, discovers the hidden world of magic and alternate dimensions."

Fucking awful casting

>Chiwetel Ejiofor as Baron Mordo

GOOD JOB MAKING A WHITE PERSON A BLACK AND TURNING AN OLD CHINK INTO A WOMAN

no hype

You sound just a little bit offended
>>
>>63029818
I'm ok with Tilda Swinton. They probably want to make the Ancient One androgynous as fuck, and tha's what she does well.

Don't know who the nig nog is.
>>
>>63029782
>Tilda Swinton as The Ancient One

because when I imagine a wise Tibetan man, I think of Tilda Swinton

Cast is phenomenal. Can't wait to see how it is squandered

I lost all the tremendous amounts of hype I had for the Doctor Strange movie when Benedict was attached as Strange.
It was literally my most anticipated Marvel capeshit flick and now I don't even give a shit.

Doing what exactly? Making another dozen mediocre superhero movies no one cares about?

Baron Mordo is now black
>Tilda Swinton as The Ancient One
The Ancient One is now white and female

Sure. Why not. Who gives a fuck. Hell, let's just start casting animals to play humans. Maybe a tree could play a person, too! ROLES FOR CARDBOARD BOXES!
>>
>>63033331
I felt pretty much the same way. They should have chosen someone else. Bumblesnatch just feels like a casting choice made entirely because he has a fanbase and Marvel wanted him in something.

I'm also kind of disappointed that Doc Hammer and Chris McCullogh aren't involved at all. They've talked about wanting to do a Doctor Strange movie for years, and they're great writers. Why wouldn't Marvel just hire talented people who want the job?
>>
>>63030031
He's the guy from 12 years a slave
>>
Baron Mordo is black?

Fuck, this is bullshit.
>>
>>63029818
Actually, he wasn't Chinese.
He was Tibetan.
Of course, China invests in Marvel movies and they don't want the whole Tibet thing brought up.
Ten to one that is what lead to that change.
>>
Awful casting for an awful superhero.

It's gonna be awful.

Oh quit your inane whining. All of these characters were created in a time where Marvel wasn't the most diverse of companies. If these movies casted their roles exactly as they were thought of they would be "White People: The Movie" and that's unfair for actors that not only fill a quota and bring other audiences to theaters, but are pretty good at their craft.

Both Chiwetel and Tilda are great performers. I didn't see the outrage when Tilda played Gabriel in Constantine; more often than not all i see is praise for her portrayal.

Not like you fucking normies even read the source material to form your own opinions, anyway.

Isn't Brad Pitt in that movie for like, 5 minutes?
>>
>>63033197
It's not a joke that's how his name is really spelled
>>
>>63033723
So you're saying there are no white actors good enough to portray Mordo? And no Asian actors capable of bringing The Ancient One to life?

Wow, racist.
>>
>>63033724
Oh yeah, when they get so pissed they develop some kind of apnia and have to breath through their mouths is the best.
>>
>>63033748
had more dialogue than most of the black folks
>>
>>63033819
No. I'm saying there are no good white actors at all. The only reason they cast the lead as that white half-alien is because he's popular with tumblr.
>>
>>63029782
I love Dr. Strange! This is going to be great!

After they end phase 3 or even phase 4, they probably will get FF and Spidey back, maybe even X-Men so the hype train will never stop.

>>63033966
And those are nearly 1/100 of the whole Marvel Universe, and if we count different teams and people taking the mantle (Falcon as Cap, Jane as Thor, X23 as the New Wolverine) and ultimate universes, then we could have capeshit for decades or even centuries.

Tumblr must be on cloud nine, too bad they already had David Tennant in a Marvel franchise or they could have had the entire Tumblr triplet in one flick.

Strange is calmed, Gillien is hothead. I'm actually not very happy about Cucumberlatch neither, strange always seems humble, and I perceive Curnstache as an arrogant prick

I'd rather have him as the new JJ Jameson
>>
So is this going to be another origin story? I'd rather they not try to explain his powers, just say it's magic and let him kick some ass.
>>
>>63034700
That's some wishful thinking, right there.
>>
>>63029945
If her career wasn't weird (and by weird I mean shitty) as fuck and she didn't have all those drug abuse problems, that might explain some of the movies she finds herself in, Bai Ling would have been a great choice. Broken english, weird looking but appealing, impossible to judge age, has martial arts experience plus you still get to keep the ancient one female.

Is that a hard nipple I spot? Or just the illusion from the angle.

Yes but a nigger doesn't sell, look at Star Wars merchs, almost nothing with the nigger.

Look up Bai Ling and find me a picture that isn't just of her face that doesn't have hard nipples in it. Not even joking.

>Transylvannian Baron is black

I don't. I just. Whatever.

They better change the source material for the better then if they're going to change it. I just hope it's better than Ant-Man.

Where Wong?

keanu reeves as strange still would have been better
