Those Patrick Dempsey/Dr. Strange rumors are picking up steam

Hero Complex talked with Grey’s Anatomy star Patrick Dempsey, who offered up more than rumors about his possible starring role in Marvel’s Dr. Strange (here). “I’ve been lobbying for [it]. There’s a whole bunch of people [among the 'Grey's' crew] who are into comics and Marvel, too, on the set and they’re like, ‘Doctor Strange, that’s the one you should do.’ It would be fantastic. It’d be a great TV show, especially for HBO or something like that…”

He continues: “[Marvel head honcho Kevin Feige] knows what’s going on. There was stuff going on. At Comic-Con they were talking about me playing it and there was a rumor that I’d been cast. I mean, it’s something that’s kind of out there and, you know, I’ve been looking at that. It would be a fun one to do. Hopefully, doing something like Transformers 3 is about to show myself in an action situation, where I’m not mister-weepy-doctor guy, you know, not McDreamy.”

Thoughts?

I love film. That is all.
