Loki isn't the only Disney+ TV show Doctor Strange in the Multiverse will have ties to because it's been confirmed that WandaVision star Elizabeth Olsen is set to reprise the role of Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch in the sequel. In fact, it's thought that she will have a lead role in proceedings, and that her reality-altering powers will end up factoring into the movie in some way.

We don't know much too much about WandaVision, of course, but the show is expected to focus on the Avenger's mental breakdown as she uses her powers to bring back The Vision in a bizarre series of sitcom-type settings (presumably based on those she watched as a child growing up in Sokovia).

The Scarlet Witch has been named by Kevin Feige as perhaps the most powerful character in the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe, so Doctor Strange both helping her control her abilities and using them to break the barrier between worlds makes perfect sense. It's also equally as likely that she'll fall under the control of a villain like Nightmare and serve as this movie's antagonist!
