MCU: Every Single Marvel Movie Post-Credits Scene Ranked Worst To Best

7. Doctor Strange - Mordo

Though he's pretty solid as The Ancient One's favourite pupil (at least until Doctor Strange turns up), Chiwetel Ejiofor is slightly underused in the first Strange movie, because he's playing the slightly disgruntled sedonc fiddle to the titular hero.

That all changes in the post-credits scene, when we see him hunt down Jonathan Pangborn and remove his powers from him, rendering him paralysed again. Now, this makes absolutely no sense, given what we've just learnt about the process of learning magic for two hours, but it does do so much to Mordo's arc that it's entirely forgivable.

After turning his back on the Sorcerors, this was Mordo announcing his grand plan to become a full-blown villain and having someone of Ejiofor's ability in that sort of role can only be great for the future of the MCU.
