Nicolas Winding Refn has already successfully proven his directorial and written skills with films such as Drive and Bronson. He has even directed high caliber action with Valhalla Rising. He would be the perfect director and writer to help be submersed in the world of Doctor Strange.

THE CAST
_______________________________________________
Michael B. Jordan is an excellent actor and has proven his well worth talent in films such as Chronicle and That Awkward Moment. I believe the role of Doctor Strange should be diverse and not directed towards one matter. He has the looks and the charm to play such a well admired Marvel character as Doctor Strange. This is a casting that is sure to please the fans of the character.
_______________________________________________
To play Wong, Doctor Strange's own good friend I chose none other than Jay Baruchel. This is a role I also believe it can be diverse when it comes casting wise. Wong is a very quirky and stern character, which is what I see within Baruchel and this casting choice. He would just need to go bald for the role and you instantly have the perfect Wong. Outstanding in films such as This is The End, this is another perfect casting choice I believe in my own opinions.
_______________________________________________
Clea is the main love interest to Doctor Strange. For this part I chose Kristen Schaal. An amazing and lovely actress. Her chemistry and romance between Michael B. Jordan as Doctor Strange would be one for the Oscars. Kristen Schaal is a very friendly face and would be perfect for Clea, to bring such a great character like her to life from the pages of the comics.
_______________________________________________
Travolta is a veteran actor having starred in many stellar roles. He could bring any character to life regardless of their race or identity. You could often see him on the screen and forget he is even John Travolta playing a character, you would only see the character. That is what I see within Travolta and The Ancient One. He would be The Ancient One himself. The one who guides the young Doctor Strange on his journey. Travolta's performance would be the one to give it the needed boost.
_______________________________________________
The infamous Baron Mordo is one of Marvel's most frightening villains. Steve Coogan may be a strange choice, but I was partly thinking of the voice towards the character. Coogan has a strong voice and I was thinking of Mordo, they perfectly match. Coogan is another actor much like Travolta, they can become the role. Coogan will become the role itself. I believe yet again this is another great choice.
_______________________________________________
Dormammu is another excellent Marvel villain and to play this character I choice Will Smith. Likewise the most important element Dormammu needs is a strong voice that when you hear Dormammu it will send the chills down your spine. When you hear Dormammu you should be scared and you should be afraid not just because of his fiery face but the voice of this estranged demon. Will Smith has that outstanding voice when you hear him, it often means terror or fright. He would be the perfect actor for this role.
