Phase Five of the Marvel Cinematic Universe is all set, to begin with, 'Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantamania', and the studio dropped the first trailer that is set to introduce new characters into the mix. Plans for a third Ant-Man film were confirmed in 2019, with Peyton Reed and Paul Rudd returning. Jeff Loveness was hired to write the screenplay in April 2020.

Set after the events of 'Avengers: Endgame', Scott Lang (Paul Rudd) is trying to accustom to a life where he's got the fame for playing his part in defeating Thanos, but is still called Spider-Man by people. However, things turn when the family that includes the Pyms are sucked into the Quantum Realm — a secret universe that also sees MCU's latest baddie, Kang the Conqueror. How the Langs and the Pyms manage to stop the latest menace forms the crux of the story even as it attempts to answer the questions from the first two movies.
