I'm pretty sure this is how the casting went down.

Alan Taylor: Hey, this is the reality stone. What villians do we have in the comics who want to change reality?

Kevin Feige: Oh, I think Malekith the Accursed did something like that.

Alan Taylor: Perfect. Let's just throw him in there.

Kevin Feige: Great, I have some comics with him in them. I could always lend them to you for source material.

Alan Taylor: No. I want to make sure Malekith is as generic as possible and I will strip him of a cool design and anything resembling a personality. And let's get... hm, well, I don't know, Mads Mikkelsen to play it.

Kevin Feige: Not Mikkelsen. We've already looking for a role for him in Doctor Strange.

Alan Taylor: Christopher Eccleston then. You know how much everyone loves that Doctor Who bulls**t.

James Gunn: Why stop there? Let's get Karen Gillan to play Gamora in GOTG.

Kevin Feige: Definetly not. She's not famous enough.

James Gun: Okay then, how about Nebula instead. And how about Benicio Del Toro for the Collector.

Kevin Feige: I thought we agreed Will Ferrell was going to play it. He's already got his Mugatu costume ready.

I forgot where I was going with this.
