3 Years Later, the MCU Can’t Ignore Its Biggest Multiverse Saga Cliffhanger

Marvel Studios kicked off Phase 5 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe in 2023 with Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, hoping to make a big impact. The movie pitted Ant-Man against the formidable Kang the Conqueror, and marketing suggested the highest stakes yet for the characters. However, the final film didn’t quite deliver on that promise. Instead of consistent tension, the movie was filled with jokes and awkward moments, culminating in a somewhat anticlimactic victory where Kang was defeated by an army of ants.
