CAPTAIN AMERICA 3 can’t have the entire spotlight now can it? Earlier this month we learned that Joaquin Phoenix was no longer up for the title role in Scott Derrickson's DOCTOR STRANGE. We also had the Ethan Hawke rumor and heard Keanu Reeves's thoughts on the whole idea. It was only a matter of time before a new name was thrown out there and this time it’s Ewan McGregor (TRAINSPOTTING, STAR WARS: THE PHANTOM MENACE).
Badass Digest claims that Ewan McGregor is among those being considered saying:
Yesterday a new source contacted me and said that Ewan McGregor had been prepping for the role – doing the usual research actors do when looking at taking on an adaptation or existing character. I contacted one of my usual sources and asked if this was true, and I was told “They’re looking at him.”
I think that would be a great choice for Doctor Strange considering McGregor’s talent and credibility – he was Obi-Wan Kenobi! Time is ticking and I don't think they're playing around anymore when it comes to casting; I think we're going to hear very soon who is officially taking the role. DOCTOR STRANGE is slated for release July 8, 2016.
What do you think of Ewan McGregor for the role?
