15 Worst MCU Villains (So Far)
2. Kaecilius - Doctor Strange
Doctor Strange really did an awful job with its villains overall; Dormammu was terrible, but somehow the film's other bad guy makes him look like a masterpiece of cinematic villainy.
When it comes to Kaecilius (Mads Mikkelsen) it feels a bit too generous to call him a character, because he barely qualifies as such. He's a complete non-entity with no personality, no charisma, barely any backstory and no screen presence of any kind. In fact, he barely even appears despite supposedly being the film's main villain, and he spends most of his screen-time looking at people sternly.
It's a character that gave Mads Mikkelsen absolutely nothing to do and since he's such a master of playing villains, this wasting of him is another one of the worst missed opportunities in MCU history.
He is quite arguably one of the worst superhero movie villains of all time. His visual appearance is very creepy and he's involved in some great set-pieces; those two things are all that keeps him from being the worst MCU villain.
So, who's the worst of them all?
