He looks absolutely fantastic!

Good look at the full costume:

Hmm, not quite sold on this. I'll probably go see it since I like Strange, but- dunno. They need to make this really awesome to convince me the choice of casting is a good one.

*drgon78* · 04-02-2016, 07:17 PM

I already know the choice in casting is awesome.

*AT-Man* · 04-02-2016, 09:36 PM

I'm not into blackwashing of Mordo and can't even imagine how the Ancient One is gonna be like, but Cumberbatch looks great as Strange.

*MsMarvelDuckie* · 04-02-2016, 11:34 PM

^ My thoughts exactly. Strange I'm sort of okay with. It's everyone ELSE that worries me.

*TigerClaw* · 04-03-2016, 02:16 PM

Some new set photos reveals the villain.

Funny, I'm the opposite. I've never been in to Dr. Strange at all, but the I think the world of the cast and the director has done some great work, so I'm exited.

*AT-Man* · 04-03-2016, 04:06 PM

Oh, Mads Mikkelsen is in this? Sweet!

*Bry* · 04-03-2016, 04:21 PM

Did someone actually just say "blackwashing"?

Seriously, though -- the only reason Mordo, like most characters created in the early 1960s, is white is because... well, they were created in the early 1960s. Not exactly a great time for racial diversity in media representation in America. (Or a great time for anyone who wasn't a straight white dude in general.) And it's not really a big deal if they decide Mordo is from somewhere other than Transylvania in the movies. I don't think keeping him white is in any way essential to the character.

And besides, Chiwetel Ejiofor is a terrific actor. There's no reason to believe he won't be great in this.

Let's not forget Tilda Swinton, She'll be great in the movie too.

Oh, I'm sure of that. I balked a bit at the casting at first, but it seems like they're going for an interesting, kind of "fluid" take on the character -- not really tied to a specific gender or anything, perhaps more mystical and beyond the physical realm? I'm curious to see how that plays out.

They do have a very high caliber of actors in this movie, though.

*NinjaPug* · 04-03-2016, 05:12 PM

MADS!!! Any idea who he is playing?

*TigerClaw* · 04-03-2016, 07:30 PM

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't Mordo a villain in the comics?
