*Disclaimer* The ages reflected in these Breakdowns represent what the actor’s age would be by the end of this month: May, of 2021.

*Disclaimer* For this only two very specific group of performers have been ruled out: Performers who have already played these characters and Performers who have played a role in an MCU Film. While I don’t believe I’ve used anyone who’s appeared in any of the MCU Disney + Series, I have used Actors who’ve appeared in the Netflix Marvel Series as well as Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., because frankly the canonicity of these shows are in question and highly suspect.

Victor Von Doom/Doctor Doom [Height: 6’ 2” (Normal), 6’ 7” (Armored), Age: 30’s-40’s]: Dr. Victor Von Doom, Ph.D aka Doctor Doom is a Latverian politician who serves as the Monarch and Supreme Leader for the Kingdom of Latveria. He was scarred from an accident and wears an iron mask and armor to hide his true face. He is considered one of the most brilliant minds and scientists on the planet Earth. He is also a sorcerer with skills in magic matching the most powerful beings in the Universe, making him a potential candidate for Sorcerer Supreme. He hopes to bring order and betterment to humanity through world conquest. Unequalled in ability, ego, and will power, he has come into conflict with both superhumans and cosmic beings. He is best known as the rival of Reed Richards and arch-enemy of the Fantastic Four.

                Ewan McGregor [Height: 5’ 10”, Age: 50, Notable Works: Trainspotting, Star Wars (Franchise), Doctor Sleep]: Ewan is one of few actor that when cast in a role gives it a sense of wonder and intrigue by fans. He’s a naturally gifted and dynamic actor that’s never played a role with such gravity as Doctor Doom. While it would be quite a turn for Ewan, he is such a talented actor that there would be no trouble envisioning him taking the role and becoming as iconic in the role as Brolin’s Thanos or Hiddleston’s Loki.

                Thomas Wlaschiha [Height: 6’ 0”, Age: 47, Notable Works: Crossing Lines, Game of Thrones, Rose Island]: An actor with an unsettling voice and a cold steely stare. He has an element about him that gives him this Brad Douriff vibe to him. He’s a strong actor that can really string together this sense of otherworldy intimidation through his work on Game of Thrones. He would be wonderful in the role with every sense of intimidation, intellect, and fear driving it.

                Antony Starr [Height: 5’ 11”, Age: 45, Notable Works: Banshee, American Gothic, The Boys]: Through his natural New Zealand accent, his eerie and crazed demeanor as Homelander, few actors stand out so naturally for a role like Antony Starr. He's a remarkable actor who has an intimidating presence, an ability to switch from calm and loving to feared and crazed at the drop of a hat. He's got such a presence to his performances that can gravitate a few different wheelhouses of emotions and energies that really help Antony stand out. He's got the look, the presence, and the overall talent to place the perfect Doctor Doom. regardless of any other choice for the Fantastic Four, Antony stands out as a perfect choice for Doom against all possible castings, as being one of the most intriguing and show stopping actors. There's no doubt opposite any actor as Reed Richards or Actress as Sue Storm, Antony could raise them up and give them a memorable and iconic chemistry between what would be his Doctor Doom and their respective characters.

                Alexander Skarsgård [Height: 6’ 4”, Age: 44, Notable Works: True Blood, The Legend of Tarzan, The Stand]: Through his performance as Randall Flagg you see Skarsgård in a way you’ve never seen before. He plays such an interesting and cunning villain that it stand among his best performances. He took a role with such a heavy emphasis on manipulation and whit and added his own brand of intimidation and cunning to it that makes him an actor who would certainly be able to stand out as an iconic Doctor Doom.

                Orlando Bloom [Height: 5’ 11”, Age: 44, Notable Works: The Lord of the Rings (Franchise), Pirates of the Caribbean (Franchise), Carnival Row]: Few actors are as naturally charming and charismatic as Bloom. He’s a highly underrated actor who’s always been top of the heap in terms of acting. He’s been given little notoriety for his performances, but he remains one of my favorite actors and if nothing else he could bring all the whit and charm to a role like Doom to make the character stand out, as Doom always should.

                Matthias Schoenaerts[Height: 6’ 2”, Age: 43, Notable Works: The Danish Girl, Red Sparrow, The Old Guard]: Through great performances in Red Sparrow and the Old Guard, he has shown to be an exceptional actor. He’s given some contemplative and heart wrenching performances that really makes him among the best actors working today. Putting him in a role like Doom is opening up the MCU for something magical and inventive in a performance. He’s got all the talent for the role and the ability to make it dynamic.

                Matthew Goode [Height: 6’ 2”, Age: 43, Notable Works: Watchmen, The Imitation Game, The Duke]: Best known to fans as having played Ozymandias. Matt has proven himself a capable actor, talented with Physicality, Intelligence, and wearing a costume. He knows the traits of Superhero Movie, Story, Action, and Costumes. Matt is an actor who can really delve into character and transform himself. I believe he works well as Dr. Doom based on his performance as Ozymandias. In that role he spoke with an accent, so we get the idea he can do accents, he displays an intelligent dominance as well as physical all the while practically planning the entire set of events throughout the movie. The biggest part of all, you bought that he did do it. Some even could go as far as saying they believe in his vision. Matthew could very well be an amazing Dr. Doom.

                Rami Malek [Height: 5’ 7”, Age: 40, Notable Works: Mr. Robot, Bohemian Rhapsody, No Time To Die]: Malek has proven he’s one of the most capable and interesting actors of the last generation. His work is wonderful and he transformative in his work. His role in No Time to Die looks appropriately ominous and frightening, putting him in a role like Doom is something that Malek could really build upon and create something revolutionary with for a Marvel villain, finally being able to bring a sense of menace that doesn’t necessarily need sympathy to stand out.

                Michiel Huisman [Height: 6’ 1”, Age: 39, Notable Works: The Age of Adeline, Game of Thrones, The Haunting of Hill House]: An actor of Charisma and heart. He’s perfect to enter the Marvel Mold to create something unique with Doctor Doom. He’s an actor who’s done some wonderful action and has delivered really heartbreaking performances which could certainly inspire a sense of love for the character from the audience. He would be a unique and interesting actor to take on the role and no doubt he would be a stand out in the role.

                Clive Standen [Height: 6’ 2”, Age: 39, Notable Works: Vikings, Taken, Vault]: An actor with a cold and demanding stare. For justification of why he would make a great Doom, look no further than his performance of Rolo on Vikings. Seeing him tackle the role with inspirational charisma and a violent sense of heroism to such a villainous role would make him and the character stand out among the Marvel villains.

                Pilou Asbæk [Height: 6’ 0”, Age: 39, Notable Works: Game of Thrones, Ghost in the Shell, Outside the Wire]: An actor of strength, cunning, and menace. He’s wonderful at portraying strong and intimidating villains and has the appropriate presence to draw in the self-centered energy of Doctor Doom. He has the ability to play someone like Doom, who sees themselves with a higher purpose.

                Dan Stevens [Height: 6’ 0”, Age: 38, Notable Works: Beauty and the Beast, Legion, The Call of the Wild]: He’s one of those perfect actors, someone you can see in 50 different roles and know he is perfect for them all. He’s got that sense of menace and vanity to him that’s very important in a good portrayal of Doctor Doom. Getting an actor like Dan Stevens in the role would be a massive step in the right direction in bringing Doctor Doom to the MCU.

                Henry Cavill [Height: 6’ 1”, Age: 38, Notable Works: DCEU (Franchise), Mission: Impossible – Fallout, The Witcher]: After seeing him in Mission: Impossible and Witcher, he's show he can be intimidating, cruel, and smart. He's a wonderful actor and if you want to being Henry into the MCU you need to give him a proper character, someone he can develop and evolve as well as someone who's going to be some sort of Mainstay. It's no secret Fans are dying for a proper Doctor Doom in film, and if the rumors of him being the next big bad of the MCU, well I can think of no one better. Interweaving Henry as Doom through a series of Fantastic Four, Avengers, Doctor Strange, and Solo films could take Doctor Doom to heights befitting his iconic Status.

                Domhnall Gleeson [Height: 6’ 1”, Age: 38, Notable Works: Dredd, Ex Machina, Star Wars (Sequel Trilogy)]: There are two actors who were truly robbed of an opportunity to show what they can bring, John Boyega and Domhnall Gleeson. Gleeson is a wonderful actor who has put a lot of energy and menace into the role of Hux. It was unfortunate to see the character do nothing over three movies when Gleeson had put so much work into the role. He’s a fantastic actor who can certainly take that work from Hux and put it in a role like Doom to give the character his appropriate self-centered menace and make him feel like something more than a cartoon. He is a great actor and would be a strong asset playing Doctor Doom.

                Harry Lloyd [Height: 5’ 11”, Age: 37, Notable Works: Game of Thrones, Legion, Brave New World]: One look at his role in Brave New World and instantly I got the feeling of Victor Von Doom. He is a wonderful actor, he has an edge to play a villain and a sense of regality that makes him a perfect fit for the role. He’s got the presence on screen to stand out and be a perfect Doctor Doom.

                Gaspard Ulliel [Height: 5’ 10”, Age: 36, Notable Works: Hannibal Rising, Saint Laurent, Sibyl]: Gaspard is one of the best actors I’ve seen. He’s given such complex and strong roles and brings heart to his work. He brings such a wonderful menace to his villainous roles. His work is subtle and unnerving, he has such a talent for the nuance and mannerisms of his characters that it immediately enables him to stand out in his performances. He has become a big name in French Cinema, but his early work as Hannibal Lecter continues to stand out to me. He’s got the presence and menace, he’s talented and interesting, he’s an actor who stands out in his performances. He’s a wonderful actor who would be iconic to the role, the way he could inhabit Doctor Doom could be just as definitive as Robert Downey Jr as Iron Man, Hugh Jackman as Wolverine, or Tom Hiddleston as Loki. Gaspard is perfect for Doctor Doom.
