The UCM has started Phase Five with 'Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania', but what many are unaware of is that the third installment starring Scott Lang has a scene that is actually from 'Loki 2'.
In 'Quantumania' we meet Kang the Conqueror, Marvel's new great villain (played by Jonathan Majors) on the big screen for the first time before he is the main antagonist in 'Avengers: The Kang Dynasty'. And if you thought that the UCM would go beyond the credit scenes in this last phase, you are wrong. 'Ant-Man 3' has two post-credit scenes, one in the middle and one with which the film ends, and in both of them Kang appears.
In the opening credits scene, some variants of Kang are seen gathering together to discuss the events of the last film and point out that the heroes of our universe are taking too much interest in the multiverse.
The second scene of the credits shows a variant named Victor Timely giving a lecture on the nature of time. Loki (Tom Hiddleston) and Mobius (Owen Wilson) look on, with the former admitting his concern at what they are witnessing.
The director of 'Quantumania', Peyton Reed, has revealed that the second scene of the film's credits was shot during the production of the second season of Loki, the series in which Kang made his first appearance (or at least a variant of it). of the).
Speaking to 'IndieWire' about the scene, Reed explained: "It's a scene from the second season of Loki, and Victor Timely is another variant from the comics."
The "maybe" is interesting here. The second season of Loki will premiere in mid-2023 on Disney+, while 'Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3' will premiere in May and 'Secret Invasion' has no date yet, but we can see it a little earlier than the second season of 'Loky'. Could another variant of Kang appear in one of those projects? Maybe.
It was on February 16 that Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania was released in theaters, one of the most anticipated films by Marvel Studios fans and which officially opened Phase 5 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Officially introducing us to the villain of the Multiverse Saga, Kang the Conqueror, the film keeps opinions divided as some loved it and others didn't, but this is common with Marvel releases.
Although the start of this Phase 5 has given us only a few details of what is really coming with Kang, the great villain who is preparing to fight the Avengers and perhaps the Young Avengers.
With the third installment of Ant-Man still in theaters, there is still a long way to go before it premieres on the Disney+ platform, but as usual the film should arrive on the site between the end of April or the beginning of May, this is due to the fact that a minimum is expected between 80 to 90 days to release the new movies on Disney +.
It must be considered that Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.3 opens worldwide on May 5, therefore the film should be streaming already close to that date, as happened with Black Panther 2 that arrived on the platform in February and long before Ant-Man 3 was released in theaters.
It should be noted that Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania is still available in theaters in the country, in case you have seen the movie you can review the meaning of the two post-credit scenes HERE.
From Wakanda to Asgard, the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) has transported fans to fascinating worlds over the years. Now, with the arrival in theaters of ANT-MAN AND THE WASP: QUANTUMANIA, the latest Marvel Studios film that kicks off Phase 5 of the MCU, audiences are getting to know another extraordinary world like never before: the Quantum Realm. That's as far as Scott Lang/Ant-Man (Paul Rudd) and Hope Van Dyne/The Wasp (Evangeline Lilly) go in the new story, in which they face a never-before-seen threat from a "multiversal" adversary who has arrived. to stay.
Within the MCU, the Quantum Realm has made appearances in ANT-MAN: ANT-MAN, ANT-MAN & WASP, and AVENGERS: ENDGAME, but it's in ANT-MAN AND THE WASP: QUANTUMANIA that it's fully explored. After accidentally getting trapped there, Scott, along with his daughter Cassie (Kathryn Newton), Hope, and her parents Hank (Michael Douglas) and Janet (Michelle Pfeiffer), must figure out together how to get out of this unknown world.
To bring all those ideas to life, production designer Will Htay led a team of 50 people, including concept artists, researchers, storyboard artists, art directors, set designers, sketch teams and assistants. “We wanted it to feel huge. We didn't want it to be macro photography and we didn't want it to be too reliant on digital animation. While we knew we were going to use visual effects and digital animation, we wanted to make it as real and tangible as possible so that when we go there with our characters, we can touch and smell it. We wanted it to feel like a real place that is hidden within the Multiverse,” says Htay.
The result is endless surprises that the audience discovers at every step. Actress Evangeline Lilly describes: “You look across the landscape and you don't see anything you would expect to see on planet Earth. Things like gravity work differently, so you have water trickling up instead of down, and you have clouds that don't move in any way resembling our reality. It's as silly and funny as it is sweeping and epic and beautiful."
The Quantum Realm was created from various sources of inspiration drawn upon by the film's creative team. The filmmakers were inspired by the works of the Italian cartoonist and illustrator Sergio Toppi, the Argentine artist Tomás Saraceno and the American architect Lebbeus Woods. In turn, they took as reference electron microscope images and the theory of subatomic particles. Conceptually, Htay designed the Quantum Realm as an infinite canvas of space with interconnecting points and nodes that become worlds and landscapes unto themselves with different creatures.
Director Peyton Reed, for his part, says that he extensively reviewed science fiction books from the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s, by artists such as John Harris, Paul Laird, Richard M. Powers, and was especially inspired by their covers.
With the alarming entrance of the iconic villain, the MCU faces an unprecedented and very dangerous new threat, following a brief - but revealing - appearance by Kang in the Loki series.
Kang The Conqueror is played by Jonathan Majors, and is presented as the greatest danger the MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe for its acronym in English) has ever seen. The great threat that makes its presentation in ANT-MAN AND THE WASP: QUANTUMANIA, opens phase 5 of the MCU and can now be enjoyed in theaters. Who is Kang the Conqueror?.
Audiences got their first look at the character of Kang the Conqueror in Loki, the Disney+ original series in which he bears the name “The One That Remains” and, just like in the new film, he was played by Jonathan Majors. That version of Kang made the landing of him in the last episode of the series, revealing himself as the mastermind behind the Authority of Temporal Variation (AVT), and hinting in turn that his presence would have a great impact on the future of the MCU.
Nearly two years after that reveal in Loki, the MCU ups the ante with Kang's landing in ANT-MAN AND THE WASP: QUANTUMANIA, sparking a joint effort by Scott Lang (Paul Rudd), Hope Van Dyne (EvangelineLily), Janet Van Dyne (Michelle Pfeiffer), Hank Pym (Michael Douglas) and Cassie Lang (Kathryn Newton) to stop him before it's too late.
Time, it seems, is Kang's secret weapon, and he intends to use his unique knowledge of it to conquer worlds that extend far beyond the Quantum Realm. In bringing this multiversal adversary to life, the film's director Peyton Reed worked closely with Majors to shape the right attitude for Kang. The result is a memorable performance.
The director, in turn, comments that the intimidating energy of the villain is in irresistible contrast to the lighter spirit of ScottLang/Ant-Man. “It was great to put that energy against that of Paul Rudd, which, in turn, reflected what we were doing on the film. Many people may consider Ant-Man the weakest Avenger: 'What can he do? He shrinks and talks to the ants. How ridiculous!’ Pitting that character against Kang the Conqueror, who is the most powerful being in the Multiverse, we thought was very interesting,” concludes Reed.
