right, I really hate when they recast, maybe after only being in one movie then recast but if they’ve been in multiple movies like both captain marvel and dr. strange have been don’t recast please, for me truly it won’t be the same, and both actors have that extra oomph that I can’t see anyone else replacing their parts.
Its one thing to recast Captain Marvel.
The wrong choice is to recast Doctor strage!!!!! He is the best Doctor Strange. It’s like if Recast Iron man! No one can play iron man the way Robert Downey Jr. Did!!!!
I just want to point out that they state in this very article that they have recast Iron Man for this series. Downey’s contract was up after Endgame. And they’ll keep the same looks for the character since this is an animated series. They are only re-casting voice actors.
It’s What If…? These are all alternate reality versions of the characters. That’s the entire premise of the show. Casting a different voice actor is fine for any of the times regardless who they are.
There is no such person as Iron Man voice or human other than Robert Downey Jr. If he no longer wants to be “His” original character that’s one thing but if Marvel is pushing him out then I am done. No one replaces Robert Downey Jr!! Period….. animated voice or human and I feel the same about Steve Rogers Captain America. This is just wrong. These guys can not be replaced! What is wrong with this studio? As I said, if they no longer want to portray THEIR character then so be it but something tells me this is not the case. How dare they seek to replace them!!!
I’m sorry, pushing him out? What?? Robert Downey Jr and Chris Evans both left the MCU on his own, it’s impossible to push him out. If Disney and the MCU feel that they have more stories to tell involving the 2 of them, and then chose to do so in an animated series, it’s fine by me. While it is true that Chris Evans IS, and will always be Cap, just like RDJ will always be Tony Stark aka Iron man, but at the same time I’d much rather they use different actors to voice them then the alternative, no more TS or Cap.I will ask it again, I agree completely, NEVER replace RDJ OR CE in a live action movie, but I for one am certainly not going to boycott the entire MCU over 2 voice actor changes….NEVER
Fans of Marvel Comics AND the MCU have zero issues with different actors voicing the ANIMATED characters. Why? Because it’s the character that is utmost important.
Right, thank YOU!! Why are some people so out of touch? For 1, it’s an animated series, and 2, neither Disney, nor the MCU “pushing RDJ and/or Chris Evans out the door, the 2 of them choose, ON THEIR OWN, to leave the MCU after EG. Getting an animated series that includes Cap and Iron man far FAR out weights the use of different VOICE ACTORS. I feel like Allen Iverson during his “were talking about PRACTICE!!” speech right here, “ANIMATED, ANIMATED, not a live action movie, not the movie, but different actors in an ANIMATED SERIES, NOT A MOVIE!!!!!” Some people really are something else
It’s one thing to cast someone else’s voice in a kids animated movie (if the human character does not want to do the voice) but STOP attempting to change the original cast. PERIOD!
All of the actors are too expensive if your not going to use them on screen. They would rather save the actors for on screen performances and use voice actors who sound like them for the movies/ shows that don’t show their faces.
Rubbish why recast? Don’t want to see another captain marvel if keep changing the actors then I’m stop watching them. I don’t watch the animated series as they are off compared to the movies.
How many “Cartoons” have you ever watched as a kid? they have voice actors in every single one of them, and sometimes they actually get an actual actor or actress to play the roles that they did in the live action movie or series, but for some people to debate watching a show or not because the actors/actresses that they like are in/ not in a cartoon is really sick, and disrespectful to the show or movie, things change, people are looking for “inclusiveness” a lot of people want to see if the multiverse actually exist, and for people to hoot and Hollar about the character is like going to the movies and telling people the plotlines, it’s pretty stupid.
Get it right. I know it isn’t popukar, but, the original
Mar-Vell. Coming up on 40th anniversay of the death of OG Captain Marvel. His Son,Hulking is going to get a big push soon in young avengers. Dont let Bucky/Winter Soldier, Jean Gray, and Barry Allen Flash has all the return from death fun. Make Mine Mega-band, Male, Mar-Vell.
For once, correct this mistake and make comics Great Again.
What if the powers that be, gave a war, and nobody came? Ludicrous that someone took so much time out of their lives to really take this information seriously. I read them, just to read about the people so obsessed by all this hoopla. I admit, I like some of the new movies and such, but I do not care to make it, part of my life. I do not care to enter the, what if, scenarios. Who, Cares!
Bri Larson should be recast, she is awful in the roll. There are far far greater actresses for the role. If Marvel recasts Dr. Strange they are only hurting their pocketbooks.
Meh, who expects animated and live versions of anything to have exactly the same cast anyhow? Still going to watch it… and love it. Marvel has yet to disappoint me.
Marvel actors are not under contract anymore. Which means if they don’t want, they don’t have to. I’m very disappointed in some actors who decided not to come back.
The show is called what if after the comics it is a series of alternate reality stories with alternate versions of every character. Stop being stupid, stupid.
But MOST IMPORTANTLY, I have an opinion! I say we either everyone the same or recast everyone for the animation! I want Eugene Mirman (a.k.a Gene from Bob’s Burgers) as Capt. Marvel, Bobcat Goldthwait as Dr. Strange, a whiny Mark Wahlberg as Ant-Man, Morgan Freeman as Vision/Jarvis, James Earl Jones as Ego(for obvious reasons), the only woman who can play a Peggy; Kathy Najimy as Peggy Carter(imagine her trademark laugh followed by a self amused “Oh… Peggy” when talking to Capt. America!), Sam Elliot as Capt. America;
Alec Baldwin – Hawkeye
Fran Dresser – Black Widow
Patrick Stewart – Odin
Megyn Kelly – Pepper Potts
Liam Neeson – Black Panther
Tom Hanks – Bruce Banner
Patrick Warburton – Hulk
Keith David – Nick Fury
Johnny Hardwick(Dale Gribble) – Star-Lord
Mike Myers – Rocket Raccoon
Trace Adkins – Heimdall
Shia LaBeouf – Spider-Man
Michael Sheen – Thanos
Joe Pesci – Loki
Al Pacino – Thor
Kathleen Turner – Gamora
(The rest you guys can fantasize over)
But the guy who plays the Iconic Ultimate Animated Iron Man …… Vince Vaughn. (I get it! But as far as Animation, all of these choices would be highly entertaining & amazing to watch!)
Ever since Stan died, others who really didn’t know Stan have tried to change things and I think it’s all about money, not what the real fans want. I’m done. Time to move on.
Only reason they did it was because the actors were working on other projects. The actors aren’t being removed from the MCU they just weren’t able to be there for filming. Doctor strange and Captain Marvel both have “solo” films up and coming.
Comments for Marvel Quietly Recasts Captain Marvel and Doctor Strange in New Project
BB Kradwell
Yes, of course I’ll watch it. What, like I’m NOT going to do that? Come on, Marvel’s had me hooked from the start and they know it!
Shafi Islam
I’m fine with recasting Captain Marvel. I preferred Emily Blunt or Katie Sackoff in the role, anyway.
Terri
Stupid, stupid, stupid
Mohammad Yasin
It’s probably Kim raver she does the voice for marvel rising
Leonard Wagenknecht
Hell yeah I’m watching it. I grew up on Marvel and loved What If back in the early 90’s. I’m excited for it!
Jennifer

You realize they were too busy with their own movies right?
Joyce
No.

Ron Robinson

The show is called what if not everything is the same. As long as tge stories are good let’s roll with it
Mohammad Yasin
It is the case because they have said it in interviews have you lived under a rock this entire time

No one is pushing Downey out of the MCU except Downey himself. One he wants to move on to other roles; and Two his salary demands are too high
JB
Relax.
Bryan Dawson
RDJ has said on several occasions after Endgame that he has put the character behind him. Why return then for a small animated show?
RL
Fans of Marvel Comics AND the MCU have zero issues with different actors voicing the ANIMATED characters. Why? Because it’s the character that is utmost important.

It’s an animated show, the stars who are being “recast” are not being recast in the live action movies. Smh

Isn’t marvel already what if ? What if super heroes and mutants existed? Now a what if inside of a what if?

“When the idea was first pitched, Marvel boss Feige was presented with 30 pitches for each episode, which was eventually narrowed down to 10”
I assume this is a mistake because this would be 300 pitches total. 30 for each episode and ten episodes equals 300.

This is a voice project, it’s okay to recast. AND it’s the multiverse. It would be better if things were different.
Yinz are just overreacting.

I don’t understand the negativity around captain marvel. I never have. I like both captain marvel and dr. strange and will hate to see either go.

One of my favorite comic book characters as a kid was Captain Marvel but I cannot stand to watch this version of captain marvel

Hey if we can get Micheal Rooker back to voice Yando I’m so down for that
Todd Jumper
Then why did Jeff Goldblum claim he did voiceover work with Robert Downey Jr. For his What IF episode?
