Doctor Strange 3: 10 Characters Who Could Be The Main Villain
3. Baron Mordo
Because Baron Karl Mordo is Doctor Strange's arch-nemesis, we knew the dark magician would play a pivotal part in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Despite appearing in both Doctor Strange instalments, we have yet to see the character fully embrace his villainous side. He was an ally to Strange in the first movie, and only turned his back on him at the very end. We saw a slightly more antagonistic version of him in the sequel, but this was a variant of Mordo from a parallel universe.
As we haven't seen the original Mordo in the MCU since 2016, one can only imagine how much he's changed. Has he fully embraced dark magic? Do his powers surpass Strange's? Has he become a servant to Dormammu, like his comic book counterpart?
Although Mordo is usually depicted as a minion to a greater enemy in the comics, it would be better to see him being the central threat for once. Not only would be it awesome for Strange's next outing be against a human enemy rather than an otherworldly creature, it would help develop Mordo as a character, and show how far he has fallen.
