Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness director Sam Raimi weighs in on whether Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen) is stronger than Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch). The magic-wielders and MCU mainstays haven't properly met despite both fighting Thanos (Josh Brolin) in Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame. Now, Marvel Studios is finally set to bring them together in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, but their relationship could be more tumultuous than cordial.
The upcoming MCU film will mark Wanda's re-emergence after the events of WandaVision. After the Maximoff Anomaly, she went on a self-imposed exile where she learned more about herself as the Scarlet Witch through the Darkhold. It's uncertain how much knowledge she's accumulated through the book of dark magic, but tapping into that could only make her more dangerous. Audiences saw Doctor Strange more recently after his involvement in Spider-Man: No Way Home in which he tampered with the multiverse. His actions in that movie will put him in sight of the MCU’s Illuminati. Of course, early Doctor Strange 2 trailers appear to show how the pair meet with Strange seeking Wanda's counsel about the multiverse, but it seems like their relationship could quickly sour and the pair could end up fighting at some point in the highly-anticipated sequel.
