How Doctor Strange Still Has The Eye Of Agamotto (Without The Time Stone)

A LEGO figure from an official set for Spider-Man: No Way Home suggests that Doctor Strange will have the Eye Of Agamotto when he appears in the film. Just how this is possible is unclear, since the Eye of Agamotto was apparently destroyed by Thanos in Avengers: Infinity War when he claimed the Time Stone held inside it. However, there are a number of possibilities explaining how he once again has it, even that the Doctor Strange in Spider-Man: No Way Home is not the same one seen in earlier Marvel Cinematic Universe productions.

The details of the story of Spider-Man: No Way Home are being closely guarded, even by the typical strict standards upheld by Marvel Studios. One fact that has been confirmed is that Benedict Cumberbatch, who has played Dr. Stephen Strange since the first Doctor Strange film in 2016, will be part of the film’s cast. It appears that Doctor Strange’s assistant Wong (Benedict Wong) will also be in the film, based on a Spider-Man: No Way Home’s tie-in LEGO toy set, which depicts Doctor Strange and Wong along with Zendaya’s MJ and Tom Holland’s Spider-Man.

One curious detail is revealed by the Doctor Strange figure, who is wearing the Eye of Agamotto. In the classic Doctor Strange comics, the all-seeing Eye was said to find and show the truth to its wielder, granting them a number of powers ranging from the simple generation of light to the erasure of illusions and the ability to read minds. The Eye is not as versatile or as powerful in the MCU, acting only as the vessel for concealing the Time Stone. This raises two questions, presuming the Eye’s inclusion on the LEGO figure is not merely cosmetic: how did Doctor Strange reacquire the Eye of Agamotto and, why did he need to?

One possibility is that the MCU’s Eye of Agamotto was never truly destroyed and that the object destroyed by Thanos was a fabrication Doctor Strange conjured up after removing the Time Stone from the true Eye. This explanation would also serve to explain a continuity problem from Avengers: Endgame, where Doctor Strange was seen wearing the Eye of Agamotto before the final battle with Thanos and his armies. It’s also possible Doctor Strange remade the Eye after it was destroyed or that it could have remade itself and had powers that were not revealed in the first Doctor Strange film. Even if the Eye was powerless after the Time Stone had been removed from it, it’s possible Doctor Strange just wanted to keep it as a mark of status, as the Eye was still a symbol of his office as the Sorcerer Supreme, even without any mystic power connected to it.

Another possibility is that the Eye of Agamotto worn by this Doctor Strange is another artifact created by Agamotto, who fashioned three Eyes in the comics, granting power, truth, and prescience, respectively. The Eye of Prescience could be particularly useful given how uncertain the future of Marvel Phase 4 is and that the story of Spider-Man: No Way Home will reportedly involve navigating the multiverse. Even if this rumor turns out to be untrue, Doctor Strange could certainly make use of such an amulet in the upcoming Doctor Strange in Multiverse of Madness.
