Doctor Strange 2: 8 Ways It Could Change The MCU Forever

8. By Making Strange The Sorcerer Supreme

An interesting revelation in Spider-Man: No Way Home is that Wong is now the Sorcerer Supreme - not Strange, as fans had assumed.

This gives more context to Agatha Harkness' line in WandaVision, where she mentions that the Scarlet Witch's power exceeds the Sorcerer Supreme's. Now, we know exactly what this means: Wanda beats Wong. There's a tongue-twister for you.

But because Wong only gained that mantle due to Strange's absence after Thanos' snap - a "technicality", as Strange puts it - it might be possible for Strange to earn it back the legitimate way, whatever that process might look like.

Alternatively, maybe Wong dies in Multiverse Of Madness, or maybe he disappears for an extended period of time, forcing Strange to become the Sorcerer Supreme in his stead. There's a shot in the trailer where Wong seems to be in great peril, so it's very possible that he's taken off the board in one way or another.

Either way, it wouldn't be a total shocker to see Strange become the Sorcerer Supreme, and while that wouldn't exactly rock the MCU to its core, it would mean that Strange is duty-bound to protect the universe from mystical threats, which, in turn, could affect his involvement with the Avengers - a topic we'll discuss later on.
