Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania(2023)

After helping the Avengers save the universe, Scott Lang/Ant-Man (Paul Rudd) has been enjoying his newfound celebrity status, while Hope Van Dyne/The Wasp (Evangeline Lilly) has been advancing her scientific endeavors. Scott just regrets being stuck in the Quantum Realm for years and missing out on his daughter Cassie’s life. She has since taken an interest in science, working with Hope’s parents Hank and Janet (Michael Douglas and Michelle Pfeiffer), but a device that Cassie created to send a signal to the Quantum Realm causes the five of them to get pulled down there.

In the Quantum Realm, Scott and Cassie (Kathryn Newton) meet some of the natives of the area, who are rebels fighting against a villain called Kang the Conqueror (Jonathan Majors). During her time down there, Janet befriended Kang, believing he was another lost traveler who needed help getting home and would have helped Janet reunite with Hope and Hank. However, she learned that he was responsible for countless atrocities across the multiverse, destroying worlds and timelines as he saw fit. Janet blew up Kang’s ship core to prevent either of them from getting out. Kang sends M.O.D.O.K. (who is really Darren Cross/Yellowjacket that became deformed when Scott destroyed his suit and had him sent to the Quantum Realm) to retrieve Scott and Cassie, then forces Scott to retrieve the core or he will kill Cassie.

Hope helps Scott retrieve the core, but Kang reneges on the deal and doesn’t let Cassie go. Cassie escapes using her own super suit and frees the rebels to attack Kang’s tower. Hank also uses some super ants in the fight, and Janet opens a portal using Kang’s core to get them home. Scott fights Kang to prevent him from escaping, and with Hope’s help, they destroy the core and cause Kang to get pulled into oblivion before Cassie brings them home.

Scott returns to his life but has a lingering worry that the threat of Kang is only beginning. Sure enough, a council of Kang variants catches wind of the death of one of their own and gets ready to send each of themselves into the multiverse for an oncoming war.
