Ant-Man Quantumania

Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania will have ramifications for the MCU's future, but will the post-credits scenes tease this?

One of the greatest challenges of Phase 4, which itself was more of a reflective phase than a progressive one, was matching the expectations set by Avengers: Endgame that every movie was going to continue to be bigger and more sprawling than the last. With the movie expected [to have an impact on many upcoming MCU films](https://movieweb.com/surprise-cameos-in-ant-man-3/) and shows, the question is which upcoming movies the post credits scenes will actually link to. [Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania](https://movieweb.com/movie/ant-man-and-the-wasp-quantumania/) is almost ready to open up Phase 5 of the MCU and take fans on a new dive into the dangers of the Quantum Realm.

In the upcoming movie, the Ant-Fam is unexpectedly pulled into the Quantum Realm again, but this time Lang's now grown-up daughter Cassie (Kathryn Newton) is ...

[Ant-Man](https://www.denofgeek.com/ant-man/) would be an understatement. He is now [the MCU’s MODOK](https://www.denofgeek.com/movies/new-ant-man-3-trailer-finally-reveals-corey-stoll-modok/) – Mechanized Organism Designed Only for Killing – a giant head with little arms and legs poking out of it. [met one of his Variants in Loki](https://www.denofgeek.com/tv/kang-the-conqueror-he-who-remains-different-in-the-mcu/). Thus, we find ourselves immersed in Marvel’s new Multiverse Saga, where Lang, Hope, Janet, Hank, and Cassie will be the first to feel Kang’s wrath, and [Rudd says we can expect](https://www.denofgeek.com/movies/ant-man-and-the-wasp-quantumania-star-teases-big-reveals/) some big easter eggs and cameos in this one. Where both 2015’s Ant-Man and 2018’s [Ant-Man and the Wasp](https://www.denofgeek.com/ant-man-and-the-wasp/) were fun, family-friendly capers that [Marvel](https://www.denofgeek.com/marvel/) was happy to churn out despite their relatively low box office payoff, Ant-Man 3 has the Quantum Realm on its shoulders as it kicks off a serious and deadly new dynasty. [Paul Rudd](https://www.denofgeek.com/paul-rudd/) reprises his role as the little guy who could, Scott Lang, in a threequel that appears to be taking a tonal diversion.

JonathanMajors is excellent as Kang and cannot wait to see where this all goes. The latest entry is set predominantly in the CG swirl of the “quantum realm,” so it’s likely there won’t be as many big-then-small-then-big chase scenes through San Francisco in this one.

Entitled "I've Never Had a Normal Life", the clip features Scott having a conversation with Cassie and Hope (Evangeline Lilly) while on a drive. Evidently, ...

In the clip, Cassie is revealed to have been working with Hope and Hank (Michael Douglas) on a satellite that could be sent into the Quantum Realm to explore and catalog its mysteries.

Despite Janet's (Michelle Pfeiffer) insistence that it's too dangerous, Cassie, Hank, and Hope insist that the satellite is the safest way of exploring the Quantum Realm without actually entering it. [Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania](https://gamerant.com/tag/ant-man-and-the-wasp/) is set to focus on Scott's newfound fame following Avengers: Endgame. Kang, however, shows why [he might be a bigger threat than Thanos](https://gamerant.com/ant-man-3-director-says-kang-bigger-threat-than-thanos/): he's revealed to have faced the Avengers numerous times, having killed a number of them over and over again, including Thor (Chris Hemsworth). Scott tells his daughter that he wants her to have a normal life, prompting Cassie to remind him of her colorful childhood. Ahead of its release, three new clips for the film have been released, and they tease a story fraught with tension between Scott (Paul Rudd) and his daughter Cassie (Kathryn Newton). The clip appears to be the first meeting between Kang (Jonathan Majors) and Scott Lang. Evidently, Scott is displeased with the idea of Cassie going out in a super suit of her own - which he didn't even know she had. In the years since the battle against Thanos (Josh Brolin), [Scott Lang wrote a memoir](https://gamerant.com/antman-paul-rudd-scott-lang-memoir-real-book/) (which is now real and available for sale) which chronicled his time with the Avengers.
