I agree that it shouldn’t be changed, but isn’t Javier Bardem European?

Latveria is meant to be a land-locked, Eastern European country.

According to what the source has speculated, the 53-year-old actor would be playing Nathaniel Essex, better known as Mister Sinister, as the character had been hinted to be appearing/ referenced in several Fox X-Men-related films, including X-Men: Dark Phoenix, The New Mutants, and Deadpool 2.
He is reported to play a major villain role in the MCU however no other specifications have been revealed to date which could mean that he might play the notoriously adversarial character of Dr. Doom. He is one of the amazing artists that would fit to excel in this character though the final decision lies in the hands of Marvel Studios.
