Find Out How Ryan Gosling Could Have Looked As DOCTOR STRANGE With This New Concept Art
Hey girl, did you know Ryan Gosling was up for the role of Doctor Strange? Before Benedict Cumberbatch was cast, an artist worked on concept designs with Gosling in mind. Check 'em out here...
Before Benedict Cumberbatch landed the highly coveted role of Doctor Strange, Marvel and director Scott Derrickson met with a long line of Hollywood A-listers, including the likes of Jared Leto, Ethan Hawke, Oscar Isaac, Ewan McGregor, Matthew McConaughey, Jake Gyllenhaal, Colin Farrell, Joaquin Phoenix, and Ryan Gosling.
Aside From Phoenix, who was courted quite aggressively, we're not really sure how close any of these guys actually came to being cast - but apparently the studio was pretty high on Gosling at one point.
Artist Court Chu worked on the film only very briefly, but he was around long enough to put together some concept art of the La La Land actor suited up as The Sorcerer Supreme. “I worked probably not even a day on some version of ‘Doctor Strange’ years ago", Chu wrote on his blog (via Collider). "And back then they wanted Gosling.”
Obviously this artwork only gives us a very rough idea of how Gosling might have looked as Doctor Strange, but even still... nah!
What do you guys think?
