WARNING: The following contains spoilers for WandaVision, now streaming on Disney+.

The fourth episode of WandaVision, "We Interrupt This Program," provides the massive revelation that Wanda is indeed responsible for Westview, the alternate reality she's created to cope with her past. It's clear that the TV series is actually occurring just weeks after Avengers: Endgame, confirming that Wanda hasn't had too long to process what happened after they beat Thanos and Tony Stark sacrificed his life.

However, as all of this happens, the show may also have explained a throwaway line from Spider-Man: Far From Home regarding a certain mystical Avenger, and could suggest more going on as we get closer to No Way Home or even Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.

In Far From Home, which is set months after Endgame, Peter Parker asked about Thor and Captain Marvel coming to help. But when it became clear he couldn't take down Mysterio on his own, he also inquired about the whereabouts of Doctor Strange. Unsurprisingly, Nick Fury and Maria Hill shut him down, telling Peter they were either off-world, didn't need to be bothered, or, in the case of Doctor Strange, he was "unavailable."

It was basically the creative team's way to write off the Sorcerer Supreme after he and Pete worked so well together in Infinity War. Some fans were left wondering if Strange was off doing things that could tie into his second solo film, seeing as Baron Mordo was already plotting revenge. But given what transpired in WandaVision, that throwaway line could have dire implications going forward in the MCU.

Originally, it was thought that Strange may have been dealing with Wanda's issues during the events of the show, and therefore, was unable to help Spider-Man. That was ultimately proven untrue --  at least ostensibly -- but given that Wanda is set to make an appearance in the Doctor Strange sequel, a crossover of some kind may have happened, but we simply didn't see it. As viewers of the show also pointed out, it seems unlikely that Stephen Strange would not at least have been aware of the massive expenditures of magical energy on the show, from both Wanda and Agatha. Surely, he must have been doing something during that time, if even he wasn't dealing directly with the orchestrators of said magic. That alone would have definitely kept him busy.

Let's not forget, too, that the end of WandaVision acted as a precursor to Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, with theorists believing Wanda might once more lose all grip on reality, or bend it to her will to save her children, who she heard screaming from somewhere in the WandaVision epilogue. Having already shut down the false reality of Westview, she may ultimately be the one to break the gate open to the Multiverse, especially with a new mission and newfound magic powers.

When all of the drama turns to chaos, Doctor Strange remains the logical option to deal with the ramifications, as his duty is to be the gatekeeper of the Multiverse and protect the fabric of reality. In the first trailer for Spider-Man: No Way Home, it seems to confirm that he is at least attempting to repair some damage done to the Multiverse, though it does look self-inflicted. Of course, with magic -- and the MCU in general -- appearances can be deceiving. One talking point following the trailer was that some fans refused to believe that was Doctor Strange at all. If that's the case, he may have been replaced by someone with devilish intentions off-screen, perhaps while he was investigating the WandaVision events.

If there had been some shenanigans between Doctor Strange and Wanda that will later be uncovered, especially as they team with Spider-Man in subsequent films, that subtle moment in Far From Home would turn out to be a clever way of explaining why the Sorcerer Supreme couldn't help his wall-crawling buddy at the time, and could tie directly in to the Marvel Cinematic Universe's larger narrative.

Written by Jac Schaeffer and directed by Matt Shakman, Disney+'s WandaVision stars Elizabeth Olsen as Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch, Paul Bettany as Vision, and Randall Park as Agent Jimmy Woo.
