    Never heard of Scott Derickson, I've looked up his movies....they don't look like the good types but then again this time he'll probably have much better material to work with.

    After the Ant Man director crap, I will wait until the movie is nearly done before I pay attention to who the director is.

    This guy is hit or miss, but I did enjoy Sinister.

    I think he did a good job on Sinister, so who knows how well he will do with Dr. Strange.

    Never seen his movies so I can't really say anything about him, but I'd certainly like Leto to play Strange.

    I know him only from Requiem for a Dream, the teenie magazines I read as a kid and when he screams all day out of our radio here at work.

    I think he can do it. Of course I would be happy if Johnny Depp would play Doctor Strange. But if Jared Leto plays him... why not.

    After the Russo Bros knocked it out of the park with Cap I am inclined to trust Marvel's less conventional picks for directors. I know only a little more about Dr. Strange than what I've learned playing MUA (haha that's not much!) so I can't say I'm super hyped for this, but it is a Marvel movie so I expect good things and will keep an eye on it. Jared Leto seems like an interesting choice. This doesn't seem like his type of movie, but Marvel has also brought in some unexpected actors (Robert Redford, Glenn Close, etc) Granted, those aren't really main parts, but Iron Man kind of started with an unexpected star too in RDJ and look where that has gone!

    I still think Johnny Depp would've been a great choice for Dr. Strange.

    I hope they end up casting Aiden Gillian as Doctor Strange.

    Early rumors are already coming out on who might play Doctor Strange It should surprise no one that Benedict Cumberbatch is on the list but Tom Hardy was a bit of an odd one to see. Like Ant-Man this movie will need star power since Doctor Strange is relativity unknown in the general audience so someone like Cumberbatch will definitely attract crowds Personally I love the idea for the fact that the idea of seeing Cumberbatch on screen with the other awesome actors in the MCU gets me excited.

    Casting Cumberbatch as Dr. Strange would certainley get me to go see it in-theaters. Might even get me excited enough to read some of the comics involving the character.

    Cumberbatch could work, all fangirls would rejoice and go crazy and see this film even if they've never heard of Doctor Strange....so there's profit in the casting.

    Me frankly, wouldn't mind, be cool to see RDJ talking to Cumberbatch.

    Loki and Doctor Strange. Hiddleston and Cumberbatch. Oh my. Imagine that.

    Richard Donner, Tim Burton and Sam Raimi have done horror films, so Derrickson sounds like he'll be a good choice for this. I just hope this film won't be too scary. It has the potential to be really freaky and psychedelic though, and I think that will be awesome.

    I'd like Hardy to do the role. I've enjoyed his film performances (ROCKNROLLA, DKR, BRONSON) more than Cumberbatch's (STID, The Hobbit 2).

    Rent War Horse and you can see it they were in that together (and did some nice press interviews together too)

    I am all for Benedict as Dr. Strange. He can get fans excited in much of the same way as RDJ has done.
