Julian McMahon Talks About Dr. Doom

Posted by:

When the idea for a movie is taken from a novel, or better yet a comic book, certain liberties are made - some of them are good, while some may turn out not so good. Where this one lays, only time will tell. In a recent press conference, Julian McMahon talks about his character having a certain "organic" side affect from the same rays that will create the Fantastic Four. If your still wondering what I'm talking about, I'm referring to Dr. Doom's steel armor.

"Once they all come back to Earth, Victor gets a cut in his head, and he starts to develop this stuff on his hand," McMahon said in a press conference on the set in Vancouver, B.C. "It's actually a very cool thing we've done, ... this very slow evolution of this man turning into this kind of metal-steel kind of product. I don't even know what it is."

Even though the final look of Dr. Doom is being kept under wraps, Avi Arad confirmed in the same press conference that McMahon's prosthetic metal makeup will evolve throughout the film and "end up where you would expect it to be."

You can read more what Julian had to say here. Fantastic Four wraps up filming in December and is scheduled to be released July 1, 2005.
