  • theoriginalmartian He's more of a Khalid Ben-Hassin than a Kent Nelson.

    • thefinalitfan @martianmanhunter02 I can see that, I just thought that since Black Adam has such Middle Eastern influence that having a Middle Eastern actor play doctor fate would be neat

    • theoriginalmartian @thefinalitfan @thefinalitfan It also depends on what you're going for with the story. They've confirmed that the Black Adam movie will be an origin movie. So are you going for that or a modern-day story? If you're going for the former, I would say change the role from Doctor Fate to Nabu. I think Ahmed would be great as Nabu.

    • theoriginalmartian @thefinalitfan Doctor Fate/Kent Nelson should stay a white man because the way the character is designed is to reflect the British and American archaeological expeditions to Egypt. He's always been an outsider who gets sucked into this ancient and mystical world. Then, like the archaeologists, he brings what he finds back to western civilization.
