This mephisto was actually creepy. The one in the second film looks like a drywall contractor.

Sad things is, Cirian Hinds is actually a good actor and can play a good villain. His portrayal of Julius Caesar in HBO’s Rome proves it. But yeah, he was horribly miscasted. He needs to be a bigger, a villain who speaks softly, but causes disaster. Mephisto is cunning and prideful, he relishes in being the dealing devil. I would love to see Hinds as Nightmare or Malbogia (I know not Marvel but sill). Or hell, he could have been a great Dormannu.

I've met a few drywall contractors that probably were minor devils at least

1:28 Actor for Mephisto’s acting is supreme here. The subtle sinister energy he gives off is absolutely outstanding. Overall this actor for Mephistopheles was perfect.
