I am tuning out the rumors until we get something concrete from a real and reliable source

Definitely no children. I keep seeing people suggesting that guy from Star Wars, Adam driver. Doom should be an adult man, keep the sweet valley high stuff for Spider-Man
That's why I wondered if Clive Owen could work, or if he's too oldDefinitely no children. I keep seeing people suggesting that guy from Star Wars, Adam driver. Doom should be an adult man, keep the sweet valley high stuff for Spider-Man
In 6 weeks and two days we might get our first glimpse at the icon Doctor Doom.
BP2 is reportedly 2 hours and 40 something minutes of screen time
i have a suspicion it will end up being Bardem. In my heart i want it to be Nikolaj Coster Waldau
You know, Hollywood (and Disney) acts like they're so concerned with diversity and representation, but the truth here is if they're making that switch, it's to appeal to the large number of Latinos in the US. They could add some genuine diversity by sticking with Doom's Romani roots, but there isn't a large enough number of that people in the US. This shows me they don't give a rats behind about diversity, they're just doing it to make money.I sincerely hope its not Bardem cause that will go with that rumor that Latveria is being reimagined as a Mediterranean nation....PLEASE Marvel do right by Doom...you will have an epic villain, a beautiful tapestry that is his rich history....I beg Marvel...DON'T **** UP DOOM!!!!

How many Romani do you see represented in the media?And even if the casting were to appeal to a Latin demo I don’t see how that doesn’t qualify as genuine diversity or is a bad thing. It’s not like that’s been a well-represented group in media.

i remember Stephen King’s Thinner, though i doubt the actors were ethnically Romani most likely just playing “gypsies”.
forgive me for being culturally insensitive but i would prefer Nikolaj Coster Waldau or whoever pretending to be Romani as opposed to casting a Romani who couldnt act out of a paper bag
I don't have any objection to a Spanish actor playing Doom, but the character IMO should be Romani. It seems so central to his character. I can't think of any good reason to move Latveria to the Mediterranean.I'm not saying Romani people don't deserve representation. A Romani actor for Doom would be dope. But it's weird to me to police what is and isn't genuine diversity among groups with observably poor representation is all I'm saying. And the part about a Spanish actor being cast just to appeal to Latin Americans is just like not a thing.
I don’t have anything real solid to go on, but I’d put it at about 80% yes.
In this battle of kingdoms, it just seems the perfect time to bring him in.
Particularly with the strong history of Doom with Namor and also his connections to Black Panther.
