The Dr. Strange Movie

Reports have surfaced that Marvel/Disney has hired writers Thomas Dean Donnelly and Joshua Oppenheimer to write the script for a Dr. Strange movie. For those of you who don't know who he is, Stephen Strange is a sorcerer, actually the sorcerer supreme. He possesses many magical abilities and items. His origin i he is a world-renowned but selfish neurosurgeon, until a car accident damaged his hands, preventing him from conducting surgery. Depressed he searches the world for a cure to his condition, Strange locates a hermit called the Ancient One in the Himalayas and is taught the mystic arts.

I love Dr. Strange!

Already an actor has approached the role, who is it? Patrick Dempsey.


Now definitely he looks the part at least facially and he has already played a Doctor, but i don't know if he's right for the part. His acting fluctuates. He's god sometimes and awful others. But what makes me want him to get the role is that he jumped for it so eagerly that he would probably give it his all.

However Dr. Strange has to use magic and chant and have an odd yet arrogant vibe to him. I personally think the best man for the part is Johnny Depp.


He plays this kind of role so well, Secret Window and the Ninth Gate are great examples. He could pull it off with the cool suave intelligence and looks so much like him. I think he could RDJ this character and would make this movie great. But like i said Dempsey isn't bad either.

Regardless i think this movie will be great and i cant wait for more details.
