I hope you understand. The greatest threat to our universe... is you.
~ Mordo addressing Strange as a threat to his universe.
I'm sorry, Stephen. Your desecration of reality will not go unpunished.
~ Mordo to Strange.
I'm beginning to understand why your Mordo didn't like you very much!
~ Mordo, after Strange defeated him and left him behind in the pit.

Baron Karl Amadeus Mordo is the secondary antagonist of the 2022 Marvel Cinematic Universe film Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. He is a variant of Karl Mordo that became the Sorcerer Supreme of the Masters of the Mystic Arts after the death of the Doctor Strange from his world. Following this, he became a member of the Illuminati.

Upon meeting a Doctor Strange from another world and America Chavez, Mordo greeted them to his world before having them imprisoned by the Illuminati, with the intention of having Strange executed.

He was portrayed by Chiwetel Ejiofor, who also played his original counterpart, as well as Victor Sweet in Four Brothers, Luke in Children of Men and Scar in the live-action The Lion King remake.

Overview[]

Mordo initially presents himself as a humble and friendly person when he is introduced to the Doctor Strange of Earth-19999. He refers to Strange as his brother, suggesting that he and his Strange had a bond that was familial in a way. However, this later proves to be a façade on his part, in order to trap Strange and America Chavez, and have them be imprisoned by the Illuminati.

Like the other members of the Illuminati, Mordo believes that any version of Strange could pose a potential threat to the multiverse and must be executed to prevent him from causing damage. Unlike the others, however, Mordo is unwilling to listen to any reasoning and is dead set on having Strange executed. For this reason, Strange believes that there is more to Mordo's motives than what he's initially showing. Strange provokes Mordo by accusing him of sabotaging the Strange of Earth-838 to take his place as Sorcerer Supreme. Whether Strange is correct is never revealed, but Mordo's furious reaction could be read as him either desperately trying to cover his tracks, or simply taking offence to the suggestion that he would betray his late friend.

Despite Mordo’s high intellect, he holds complete delusions of grandeur between right and wrongs of saving people same as the other Mordo.

Trivia[]

  • Alongside his mainstream counterpart, Baron Mordo is Chiwetel Ejiofor's first role in a Marvel production and the first Marvel role he has played. He is set to next play Orwell Taylor in Venom: The Last Dance.
