Oh what a sinister smile he has...

Oh what a sinister smile he has...

The better to freak you out with my dear...

Although The Myth has foiled Fox's "secret plans" to incorporate Christian Clark as Mr. Sinister in the following X-related films (starting with Wolverine), after seeing this, i doubt you'd all disagree with my choice. I admit that Clark definitly has the look plus the availability for commitment and that i will surely enjoy him portraying my all time favorite x-villain... but alas, my heart belongs to another. From the moment that Myth had laid out his scenarios of the next three x-films for us to read, i just saw this actor fit the role like none other possibly could. Yes of course the skin color will be an issue with a few but doesn't Sinister have "shape changing abilities"? Who cares if they make him out to be african american instead of caucasion, as long as we all get to see him as we want him to be in the films. And no one here can name me an actor that would have a better natural voice for this character.

My Sketch of Keith David as Mr. Sinister!!!

David is one of my favorite actors, and I have long considered him to be one of the most under rated actors of our time. He is classicaly trained, has extensive theater experience,great screen presense, and one of the best voices ever. As much as I like him, I don't know if he is best for the role. I know if he portrayed Sinister he will be unbelievably amazing. But I believe there is another actor who could be as good, or better.

Jacob Issacs. As you know he is known for diverse and dramatic roles. He has starred in films such as Event Horizon, and a powerful performance in the Patriot. He has an truely Sinister bearing in several of his performances that are perfect for this character.

Well, thats my two cents.

HAWK out.

But Jason Isaacs would be great in countless roles and wouldn't be a better Sinister than say... Doctor Doom, Loki or even Magneto. In David's case, he'd stand out totally as Sinister in fact, just looking at him i couldn't cast him as anything else. IMO, he's made for the role even though i do agree with you hawk, Jason Isaacs would also land it superbly.

TheSoulEater- thanks dude, that's EXACTLY what i was going for :))

I think he'd be perfect. Great choice.

All I know is that I'm sick of Magneto being the mutant villain in every freaking X movie. It's time for some new blood, and Sinister would be sick.

I really like Metalhead's idea for X4 involving Genosha and the Sentinels; Sinister would be the perfect villain for that story...and then bring on Apoc in the 5th movie.

I think Jason Isaacs and Hugh Laurie should have a deathmatch to decide who'd get to play Jason Wyngarde.

Shaman, great sketch! I can see that wide twisted smile and hear the deep rasp that just sounds so... Sinister. Now, before too many people panic about a Black guy playing a white character, Sinister would be a large undertaking from a makeup stand point regardless and naturally Shaman isn't tryin to give us another Kingpin incident, as the makeup would hide the actors actual race.

X4 should be the Mutant Massacre! No questions. Save Genosha and the Sentinels for X5, the X-Tinction Agenda. I'll rerelease my fan-fics on these 2 again to refresh your minds of the awesomeness of this plan.

dellamorte1872- Dude, calm yourself down. First and foremost, picking a black actor as Sinister doesn't mean i'd want him to appear black. With make up and CGI, you can do anything these days. Hense why i stated in the paragraph above that he had "shape changing abilities". He'd look as i sketched him. Does my sketch look black to you??? Would his lips appear that dark if the rest of his face was black? Of course not.

Macksimus- You really have to read The Myth's articles!!! They're amazing :))

TheMyth- Thanks buddy, and here are your links to your articles for everyone to enjoy :))
