Which Marvel character’s spell leads into Spider-Man: Brand New Day?

The story behind the answer

Doctor Stephen Strange’s spell leads into Spider-Man: Brand New Day. The spell is cast at the end of Spider-Man: No Way Home and changes the world’s memory of Peter Parker.

In No Way Home, Strange attempts to help Peter make people forget his secret identity. After the spell is altered and the multiverse is threatened, Strange casts a final spell that makes everyone forget Peter Parker entirely.

Doctor Strange is played by Benedict Cumberbatch in the MCU. Wong is another powerful sorcerer in the franchise, but he is not the character identified as casting the spell that creates Brand New Day’s starting situation.
