You're an Avenger.
You have a daughter, but you've lost a lot of time.
Like me.
Who are you?
I'm the man who can give you more time.
Scott.
You cannot trust him.
I just lost so much.
He can give us a second chance.
He will bring me what I need for everything you call a life.
We'll end.
You may not want her to watch this.
We had a deal.
You thought you could win.
I don't have to win.
We both just.
Sorry, Cassie.
Ant-Man and the Wasp Quantumania ready PG 13 in theaters February 17.
Welcome back, everyone.
Is Charlie Marvel released a brand new Ant-Man
and the wasp Quantumania trailer video with a whole bunch of new footage
that will break it down.
There's a whole bunch of Easter eggs in.
A lot of you have had questions about what's going on with Kang
the Conqueror during the movie and what leads into Avengers five Kang Dynasty.
Like, why is he doing all this? What is he going to be doing?

Just post all your theories in the comments below
and I'll name a new winner at the end of this too.
But during the trailers, Kang keeps talking to Ant-Man,
offering him this bargain. I can give you more time and that's it.
Man's whole deal is that he wants to make up for lost time with Cassie Lang.
He lost five years while he was stuck in the quantum realm.
He needs Scott Lang to help him recover the device that Janet Van Dyne
stole from his time care, his time travel device that he keeps sitting in,
in all the trailers here and all the pictures.
This is the engine that he's staring at here.
Notice that there's nothing in the middle of it
here.
But in other trailers, you see him sticking this glowing orb
in the middle of it.
That's what Jenny Van Dyne stole from him,
stranding him, keeping him trapped there for all this time.
What have you been asking what exactly that is?
It's meant to be a device that allows him to travel
across the entire multiverse and through the timeline,
not just through his own timeline, but through all timelines, all over time
and space. Anywhere is possible.
This is the MCU version of the Forever Crystal,
which is from the Avengers Forever storyline.
The Forever Crystal was basically the heart of forever
that Immortals took in changed into what he called the Forever Crystal,
and it was a device that allowed him to manipulate all time, basically
make anything that he wanted to possible combining any aspects of any realities
that he wanted.
Like during the Loki series, when Miss Minutes is trying to tempt Loki
and Sylvie Kang can reinsert you into the timeline in a way
that won't break things and make it so that you won the Battle of the Avengers.
You have the Infinity gantlet
that you killed Thanos, and you can live with a version of Sylvie.
And no one will think it's weird.
Like it won't break logic or anything in the comics.
The Immortals
version of Kang, in other variants of Kang,
other characters can use the Forever Crystal to accomplish that.
It's kind of like an upgraded version of the Infinity Gantlet.
If the Infinity Gantlet could control
every single reality, like the entire multiverse all at once,
whereas the regular Infinity
gantlet is only capable of working in their own realities.
That's why there are infinite universes, infinite versions of the Infinity gantlet
in each different universe.
Whereas there's only one forever. Crystal.
Dr. Doom also created a device like this that he called a doom lock,
which allowed him to affect time like change time around him on a smaller scale
without changing his own self.
In the comics, Kang also kind of stole Dr.
Doom's time travel platform designs to build his own first time travel device.
So just more ideas on technology.
The kang is borrowing, quote unquote, from Dr.
Doom. A lot of Dr. Doom going on here.
Don't worry.
We will see him in the MCU relatively soon.
The difference with Immortals is forever.
Crystal, is that it was a much more powerful version
of that idea that it could infect time across the entire multiverse.
A lot of people also wondering if they're going to base
some of Avengers 5 Kang Dynasty on the plot of Avengers forever
because there's basically a bunch of different Avengers from across
the timeline, like different points in time, in different realities,
all fighting with and against versions of Kang.
During that storyline, they wind up facing multiple variants
of Kang and Mortis and the regular Kang the Conqueror.
The original story for that happened in the nineties, and
there are a whole bunch of characters that they don't have in the MCU right now.
Especially smaller characters will probably won't see,
so they're going to make a couple of big changes.
They're also basing some of the story on Avengers Kang War,
which is a more recent story that features a version of The Avengers
that's much closer
to what we have in the MCU or what we will have in the next couple of years.
But just like Avengers, Infinity War and Avengers Endgame,
even though there were a lot of Easter eggs
for the Infinity Gantlet storyline, a lot of it was very different.
They changed a lot of things.
So it'll be the same situation
for Avengers five, Kang Dynasty, and then for Avengers six Secret Wars.
Here's where Jonathan Majors talks about Kang's motivation,
like who he is, why he's doing everything, what's going on inside him,
why he becomes a villain, why he becomes Kang the Conqueror.
When he was originally known as Nathaniel Richards, The quantum realm is my
current domain.
That's where I am, you know, And as the title says, I've conquered it.
And so he's a man isolated, just there, working it out,
but particularly villains that, yes, there is the manifestation of the power,
but the the internal power is really the drive, you know, And I think with Kang,
something that I found so interesting is that his pain and suffering
and this discomfort and frustration
with society and the world, and that is so great in him
that that friction has allowed him to make himself
into the supervillain that you see.
It is that internal friction that gives him that power.
Now, how it manifests.
Stay tuned. Yeah,
but but yeah,
his heartache is
is great and I think is is is
so massive
he does live up to that
that title of being the biggest baddest
you know MCU villain that we've had.
So notice when he's talking about his character,
he talks about how he went
from being this misguided scientist to a full blown Thanos level villain,
like Worse than Thanos, because he's trying to take down the entire multiverse.
When the Kang Multiverse War, he implies that being stuck in the quantum
realm for so long, being stranded there is what turned him into a villain like
he might have been misguided at first, but being stuck there for so long
just caused him to go a little bit nuts and stew until he got so pissed off
that that drove him to full blown villainy and to become Kang the Conqueror.
Conquering the quantum realm in the way that Janet
Van Dyne explains the quantum realm.
It's like a separate universe all to its own.
Apart from the regular universe,
meaning that the rocks that they're standing on here
isn't like the entire quantum realm. Like it's not one planet.
There's an infinite number
of different worlds, different systems, different suns at that level.
And Jonathan Majors is basically saying that Kang came up with his new plan
for destroying the multiverse, winning the Kang Multiverse War,
creating this new army here,
his new quote unquote dynasty after he had been stranded in.
That wouldn't have happened if Janet Van Dyne had not helped him at first.
Like they found each other as scientists, like, Oh,
we can help each other escape the quantum Room,
because that was Jennifer Dean's whole thing.
When she got stuck there.
Kang had also been stranded
there as a regular scientist before he turned into Kang the Conqueror.
Then she discovered his true ambitions for the multiverse, was horrified,
sabotaged his time chair by taking out the power source.
They're in. Abandoned him in his exile.
Then he got pissed off, conquered the quantum realm,
and they started calling him Kang the Conqueror.
So they're kind of implying in this movie that Janet Van Dyne was responsible
for Kang becoming Kang the Conqueror in everything
that he's going to be doing in Avengers five Kang Dynasty.
Blame it all on Janet Van Dyne.
And that's meant
to be part of this dark past that she never wanted to tell her family
about what's meant to be different about his character from someone
like Thanos, for instance, is they're calling Kang a man who's at war
with himself like variants of himself as much as he's at war with The Avengers.
Whereas Thanos was only concerned with changing this one
universe a616 MCU universe, the Infinity Gantlet.
In defeating this version of The Avengers, he wasn't worried
about fighting his younger
or older selves, or even fighting Avengers from across the multiverse.
The more emotional part of Kang's storyline,
like where you talk about all of his frustration
and all of these things that he's lost
this lost time might have something to do with Ravana Ren Slayer too.
They kind of tease that relationship during Loki season one and we'll see
Ren Slayer during Loki season two,
but we're going to be seeing so many variants of Kang.
It'll be interesting to see how they explain this
version of Ren Slayer and whether we see other variants of Slayer as well.
In the comics you really only meet the one version,
but obviously because the way the MCU is treating things,
there are many different variants that are going to be popping up
usually in the comics
like Avengers Forever or Avengers, Kang War or even Secret Wars.
They're really just facing one version of Kang from different points
in his own timeline, not from a bunch of different universes.
There is the Council of Kangs, which is a multiverse version of Kang's
That band together, and they did tease that during Loki Season
two, like the Council of Reeds
with Reed Richards from a bunch of different realities,
really hoping they teased that during the new Fantastic
Four movie in a couple of years.
But we'll see how quickly they spin up into multiverse stuff
because it's happening right before Avengers five,
Kang Dynasty and Secret Wars.
But he basically does confirm that this is going to be the version of Kang
that they'll face during Avengers 5 Kang Dynasty,
implying that he will make it out at the end of the movie.
It will be interesting to see what kind of Avengers team
they put together in Avengers 5 Kang Dynasty.
Will it truly be a bunch of Avengers from across the timeline,
like a bunch of older Avengers
from much earlier points in the timeline in Avengers from the distant future
because they've done versions of that in the comics.
Usually the ones from the distant future wind up being from the vastly different
future, and his characters like Vision, who don't technically age,
but there's ways that they can do older versions of younger characters.
Now, a really good example of that is The Young Avengers.
They are going to use this movie Ant-Man and the WASP Quantumania
to tease the formation of the Young Avengers,
but I don't think the actual team is going to come together for a couple of years.
A version of them could wind up showing up during Avengers 5 kang Dynasty,
and it's just a version of the team from the future
with slightly older versions of the characters.
I know there's also lots of questions about the other variants of Kang like Iron
Lad showing up on The Young Avengers because that was a big twist,
like a younger version of Kang that didn't want to be evil and wanted to be a hero.
That gets into the whole idea of Kang fighting other variants of himself
the Kang Multiverse War.
Because most of the different variants don't agree with each other,
it's always possible
we'll see future
variants of Kang not played by Jonathan Majors
that are pretending to be other characters,
but post all your theories in the comments below.
