– Ant-Man and the Wasp & # 39; could have set up these & # 39; Avengers 4 & # 39; Time course

(Note: Major Spoilers for the end of "Ant-Man and the Wasp" found here, as well as spoilers for the end of "Avengers: Infinity War." You've been warned!)

Marvel was very good to keep the details of "Avengers 4" for the most part, but they have not been waterproof. Some photos have leaked indicating that time travel will be involved (we will spare you the details in case you do not want to know anything concrete), and "Ant-Man and the Wasp" certainly provides the means to get [19659004] The quantum realm is the key to this line of thinking – people in both "Ant-Man" movies make derogatory comments about the fact that the weather is strange there, but the sharpest line just happens at the end of "Ant-Man and the Wasp" during the mid-credits scene when Janet (Michelle Pfeiffer) gives a strange warning to Scott (Paul Rudd) as he prepares to cross the quantum tunnel : "Do not get sucked by a

Now, that's all. is an extremely interesting concept for Janet to raise just before she, Hope (Evangeline Li lly) and Hank (Michael Douglas) are turned into dust by the fing er snap Thanos (Josh Brolin) used to eliminate half of life in the universe in "Avengers: Infinity War", browning Scott in the Quantum realm . And we can not help but badume that this reference means that Scott will definitely be sucked into a whirlwind of time, and he will probably play in the MCU events from here.

There are a number of possible ways to travel back in time. There is so much in the resolution of the war with Thanos, and we have found some possibilities to know how that will happen. Now, we will not guess here how to end "Avengers 4" – this level of speculation goes far beyond this nugget that was given to us in "Ant-Man and the Wasp".

But, for now, we'll badume that Scott being stuck in the Quantum Kingdom is the incident that triggers the events of "Avengers 4", and so we'll think about how the Scott's second visit to the Quantum Kingdom will be played out. . We are not saying that any of them will certainly happen – but from our point of view, with so little information on where all this is going on, they seem to be the most likely possibilities, either individually or in tandem with each other. So, let's dig.

1. Scott Will Meet A Past Version Of Janet In The Kingdom Of Quantum

All That Talks About How Time Works Differently In The Quantum Kingdom Was Just Spoken – We No We have not seen any weird proof of time there yet. Janet seems to have aged normally in the Quantum Realm, which seems a little strange, and she discusses the time she spent in the Quantum Realm in the same terms as Hope and Hank, suggesting that she he lived in the same way.

But there is a very important quantum concept that would give us wacky Quantum Time stuff and that would give impetus to Scott to continue his journey back in time: the idea that time does not come. is not linear in the Quantum Kingdom

concept here, which relies on real quantum physics, is that in the quantum realm, all times occur simultaneously, and that the physical locations in the quantum realm also correspond to moments different – like, for example, your room in your house in 2018 Your bathroom being in 1918. Basically, the strangeness of the Quantum Kingdom creates an intersection of all those moments and places, Scott could travel freely around the world. he knew how. Which would mean, then, that Janet is and will always be there in some places because they are different times even though she has returned to the normal world. So, Scott could meet her in one of those places that also includes a little different time.

This could potentially allow Scott to gain access to a person with intimate knowledge of the Quantum Kingdom, as well as powers of the Quantum Kingdom, to put to use in the conflict with Thanos in 2018.

2. Wherever Scott's hour arrives, Janet accompanies it

Given how Hank and Janet have described the Kingdom Quantum, it seems a little strange that Janet has grown normally during the three decades that she spent there. But what if she was not really in the Quantum realm for so long? What would happen if Janet met Scott and went on a time trip with him to the normal world and that's why she got older (and maybe how she managed to survive in a place where food and water did not appear

The logic for this involves a time loop, because there must be a reason why Janet has returned to the Quantum Kingdom, where Hank and Hope have it. finally saved, instead of just finding Hank and Hope in the real world after escaping the Quantum realm An Easy Answer: Wherever Scott and Janet come out of the Quantum Realm is a time before Janet was lost in. that's the case, she would end up at a time when there would be two Janets: the original, who lives her life as superhero Wasp, wife of Hank and mother of Hope, and Janet of future who traveled with Scott If the future Janet interfered with her past and her family She would disrupt the series of events that brought her to be in the Quantum Kingdom – just as Marty McFly had accidentally turned upside down her parents' meeting in "Back"

If the events of " Ant-Man and the Wasp "never happened, so Scott would not have been abandoned in the Quantum Kingdom – so, in essence, Janet should return to the Quantum Kingdom in order to make sure that the chain events could be set in motion.

All of this could mean that, like Dr. Strange, Janet even potentially saw the end of the war (or at least a potential end) even before it was over. fought, thanks to its ability to travel back in time. And this could provide the heroes with essential information in "Avengers 4".

3. Scott could appear in "Captain Marvel"

The "Captain Marvel" of the next year takes place in the 1990s, an unexplored period in the universe from Marvel to the present day. And if Ant-Man has to travel in time, it would be perfectly reasonable to expect it to be where it could end. Now, it does not seem particularly likely that he will be a major player in the events of this film because we would probably know if Paul Rudd had spent a lot of time on the "Captain Marvel" set, but he could certainly appear in a cliffhanger of mid-credits. What this kind of appearance would mean for the bigger story is hard to grasp, however, but at least showing up in the past could provide a way for someone to save Scott from the Quantum Kingdom at least once. ;to come up.

4. Scott could give Captain Marvel the head about Thanos – somehow

Scott having access to a time travel before "Avengers 4" definitely feels like he will have a major role to play in the events of "Infinity War" and save all the lost characters to the pressure of Thanos and the Infinity Stones. How it could work, however, is a very open question. And if Scott appears in "Captain Marvel", the natural badumption would be that its utility will alert Captain Marvel to the threat of Thanos in the future. The problem is that since the end of "Ant-Man and Wasp", Scott knows nothing about Thanos.

We have a very good idea that "Captain Marvel" will be an integral part of Thanos, both because of the post-generic "Infinity War" scene in which Nick Fury contacts it, and because of its backstory in comics. Carol Danvers, who becomes Captain Marvel, gets her credentials from an extraterrestrial Kree named Mar-Vell, the original Captain Marvel, who is played by Jude Law in the film. In Marvel's comics, Mar-Vell has a story of fighting against Thanos; Mar-Vell dies after Carol gets her powers, handing him over Captain Marvel's coat

We also know that, obviously, Captain Marvel has not been an active part of the MCU for the last 10 years. Something had to remove it from the procedure; if she were there, it would be logical for Nick Fury to have contacted her during "The Avengers" to help fight the alien invasion of New York, for example. Carol must have something important to do. Maybe this thing is that she leaves Earth to find a way to beat Thanos or reverse the power of Infinity Stones – thanks to the information she's got from Scott after traveling in the past to 2018.

"Ant-Man and the Wasp" ends with Scott being stuck in the Quantum Kingdom, after Hope, Hank and Janet disappear, but Scott has no information about what happened to them . While it makes sense for him to warn Captain Marvel about Thanos in the past, he is missing an element on how he will know enough about the situation in 2018.

The line of Janet to be sucked into a temporal vortex a hint. He suggests that falling into one is accidental, and probably unchecked for where one might end up if they do. So, Scott's time travel might be out of control, perhaps taking him to several different periods, perhaps even in the future. Similarly, if Scott encounters a version of Janet still trapped in the quantum realm with non-linear time, she could have seen the situation of Thanos unfold, and could transmit this info.

We do not know, but what we know that Scott, traveling back in time, does not make much sense though he can do nothing to change the future by altering the past . Her interaction with Captain Marvel could be a great excuse for her to leave the Earth, taking her out of the MCU until "Avengers 4."
