I feel like that would be pretty unnecessary and werent you the one wondering if audiences would unfairly compare Doom to Vader earlier in the thread? Whats there to gain in drawing a much more direct line to contrast the two? The likely thing to happen is that Doom will get get the biggest name of the cast and might be cast younger than well expect.
Cumberbatch would have been a good option if he wasn't Dr Strange. And I wish Mads wasn't wasted on kaecilius. He would have been perfect. William Dafoe would be pretty cool.
I think they should cast Mads as Doom, since he'll be behind the mask most of the time anyway. Just give him some makeup and prosthetic to make him look different than Kaecilius.
Too young is not right really, he shouldnt be an angsty teen. He knows what hes doing
Early 30s is a bit too young. He won't have the necessary gravitas to pull off Doom, and that is one of the most important things.
If James Earl Jones were young enough, he could've done the voice of Doom too.
What about the voice of John Noble?
I think they should cast Mads as Doom, since he'll be behind the mask most of the time anyway. Just give him some makeup and prosthetic to make him look different than Kaecilius.
Someone suggested if they get mads to play Doom he could just mention he has a brother that trifled with Magics. It kind of works and could replace his mum getting fridged.
And early 30s doom is way too young. At the very least, late thirties even forties is fine. He shouldnt be a teen wolf type Doom.
I was thinking today how fun it would be if they modelled Reed on Brian Cox. That would be fun to establish the character and would be fun for the actor. Plus they wouldnt necessarily have to do the geeky cant talk to girls thing

Even Forbes recognizes that Doom is the most important asset of the villains....
Please tell me that you mean Brian Cox the physicist and former musician and not Brian Cox the actor. Because the former is the epitome of cool brilliance and the latter...played Stryker in X2.
