MCU: 10 Supernatural Characters Who Will DOMINATE Phase 5

8. Jericho Drumm

It's still way too soon to be discussing potential legacy replacements for Doctor Strange, given the character only first appeared on screen midway through Phase Three, but it's also never a bad time to remind people that he isn't the only person to have held the title of Sorcerer Supreme.

There was the Ancient One before him of course, but other characters have also become the Master of the Mystic Arts both before and after Strange assumed the mantle, including most recently Loki.

The God of Mischief was in no way the right candidate for the role (and he only got it anyway thanks to some classic Asgardian trickery), but there was one supernatural hero who was able to succeed Strange - even if it was for a brief while - and that was Jericho Drumm.

Drumm is another powerful sorcerer who could join Strange in a third film, having taken on an increasingly prominent role in the Marvel universe in the comics over the last decade. He's a powerful sorcerer who's probably in need of a bit of an update, as far as his powers and superhero namesake are concerned, but he'd be a great presence to have in the MCU all the same.

Content Producer/Presenter

WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well. In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
