Antman 3: Is Ant-Man a Superhero?

By Mohit Kamboj Last updated Jul 23, 2022

Scott Lang, played by Paul Rudd, has been through a lot so far in the MCU. The hero fought against the Sokovia Accords, got stuck in the Quantum Realm, and then helped come up with a plan to save half of the people in the universe. Let’s find out more about Antman 3.

Also, there can’t be an Ant-Man movie without the Wasp, which is played by Hope Van Dyne. She has been on many adventures with Scott, and they will work together again in 2023’s Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania.

Jonathan Majors, who plays Loki, will also be back in this third Ant-Man movie. In the Loki series, Majors played a “Variant” of the character in “He Who Remains,” but in “Quantumania,” he’ll play the villain Kang the Conqueror, who is usually portrayed in the comics as a threat on par with the Avengers.

Aside from that, not much is known about the plot of Ant-Man 3, and there haven’t been any big leaks. There have, however, been bits and pieces of the story that have come out.

Positive Reactions to the Quantumania Test Screening

The insider KC Walsh says that Marvel Studios recently showed a test version of Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania to a small group of people. Walsh’s tweets about the sequel, which won’t come out until 2023, included the phrase “sounds fun as hell.”

Walsh also answered a fan who asked about the return of Corey Stoll, who is said to be playing the bad guy MODOK. Walsh said about Stoll that it seems like the actor “steals the show” in the new movie.

Also, the tweets say that “Cassie Lang begins her hero journey” in the book by Kathryn Newton. Fans will remember that Scott’s daughter Cassie was ready to put on a shrinking suit and help her dad fight crime. Cassie is now the right age to become a superhero because she did not get hurt by the Blip.

Walsh also tweeted “Kang vs. Krylar,” which revealed that Johnathan Majors’ Kang will fight Krylar, an obscure Marvel character rumored to be played by comedy legend Bill Murray.

Ant Man 3 Seems Like a Lot of Fun

Quantumania looks like it will have a lot of story and action in the time it runs. The mysterious Quantum Realm seems to be a big part of the story just from the name of the movie. It makes sense since the Quantum Realm has been set up in both the other Ant-Man movies and Avengers: Endgame.

But the question is: Is this the last Ant-Man film? Fans love how Paul Rudd plays the character, so it’s possible that the superhero who can shrink could come back for a fourth movie, like Thor. Rudd is 53 years old, and even though it’s clear that he loves playing the role, it’s possible that he could stop wearing his Pym Particle-powered suit after this third solo film.

But the fact that Bill Murray was added to the cast is a big deal. Murray is known for being picky about the roles he takes on, so Peyton Reed must have said something that Murray liked.

The character MODOK is supposed to be played by Cory Stoll. Fans will remember that Stol also played the bad guy in the first Ant-Man movie, Darren Cross. Cross seemed to die in the last battle of the movie, but he might have lived and been changed by the Quantum Realm into the scary MODOK.
