5 Marvel and DC villains that Zachary Quinto would be incredible playing

Dr. Doom

Remember two slides ago where this writer said that the villain can’t be better than the Fantastic Four in their own movie? Well, Dr. Doom is the only exception to that rule. Why? Because Dr. Doom isn’t just a Fantastic Four villain. He’s a threat to the universe. He rivals Reed Richards in intelligence and Dr. Strange in magic. He’s defeated Galactus, created an armor powered by Asgardian DNA to fight Thor, and has saved the multiverse by making himself a god. Victor von Doom is narcissistic, ruthless, patient, and has zero tolerance for anyone who doesn’t serve him. In short, he’s the perfect villain.

Zachary Quinto has shown that he can play arrogant in many of his roles. This is a quality that has been significantly lacking in every movie version of Dr. Doom. Picture Quinto talking in the third person or casting a spell against Dr. Strange. Or, and this is a personal favorite, him yelling, “RICHARDS!” as his plans are thwarted by the Fantastic Four.

He can do everything needed to bring the Lord of Latveria’s character to life and has all that is needed to be the Doom we’ve been looking for. Other than Tom Ellis, there’s no one this writer can think of who could do this better.
