When he was asked about a third Ant - Man solo movie lately , Paul Rudd advise that it might not be a certain affair , and pray fans to pester Marvel for a threequel . Now , the actor might have just been teasing fans , but there ’s a very real hypothesis that chances forAnt - Man 3are slim .

The premature two were box federal agency hits , but not as adult as other MCU motion picture , and the enfranchisement ’s time to come seems to be focusing more on newer heroes . Either path , it has actuate a debate among fan overwhether or not the MCU want a third Ant - Man solo movie . Let ’s take a closer tone at both sides of that argument .

Need it: Evangeline Lilly doesn’t want to do a Wasp solo movie

Evangeline Lilly has said thatshe does n’t need to make a Wasp solo moving picture in the MCU , so if we want to see more of the Wasp in this enfranchisement – which we do – then it ’ll have to be in a thirdAnt - Manmovie .

There ’s a good chance thatthe A - Force movie will get off the earth , since the future of the MCU is dedicated to diversity and the “ female child power ” moment inAvengers : Endgamehas draw mostly incontrovertible reception from fans . But as with any squad - up movie , the A - Force moving picture wo n’t have enough meter to flesh out a story electric discharge for the Wasp . AnotherAnt - Manmovie is the best prospect for that character to thrive .

Don’t need it: Ant-Man’s story is complete

When we first met Scott Lang in his initial solo picture show , he was an ex - con who fight to make ends meet , was n’t deemed responsible for enough to spend time with his own daughter , and did n’t have a purpose in life .

He has since take up a successful security measure business with his buddy Luis , come to an amicable agreement with his ex-husband - wife where there ’s no animosity between them and he can see his daughter , and not only become a superhero , but also proven his mettle bysetting in motion the architectural plan that saved the world . So , if Ant - Man ’s solo adventure cease there , we wo n’t feel as though there are any loose ends in his MCU journeying .

Need it: TheAnt-Manmovies are a lot of fun

All of the motion-picture show in the MCU generally conform to the same creative tone , but theAnt - Manmovies are decidedly lighter and more comedic than , say , theCaptain Americamovies . They extend a novel break from high-flown concepts like government conspiracies anduniverse - broad slaughter , and while we can still trust on theGuardians of the Galaxymovies for humour , theAnt - Manfilms are the only full - blown comedies in the MCU .

The first one was a heist moving-picture show , whilethe 2nd was an Elmore Leonard crime caper . Director Peyton Reed hasplans for a third movie , which would probably wreak the quality into another entirely different – yet equally fun – kind of fib .

Don’t need it: Cassie Lang can take up the mantle

Thanks to the five - year sentence leap , Scott Lang ’s adorable young daughter Cassie is now a stripling , which make her about the proper age to become a superhero herself . She ’s always been urge by her sire , so it would make sensation for her to take up the curtain and apply Hank Pym ’s technology to become the MCU ’s unexampled shrinking hero .

With the Avengers disbanded following the case ofEndgame , some fans areexpecting the Young Avengers to make their way to the braggart screen – they ’re a younger , more diverse gang of poor boy , andproducer Kevin Feige has already said he ’s been considering a Young Avengers movie .

Need it: Paul Rudd is infinitely likable

An MCU solo motion picture is only as unspoilt as its lead actor , and Paul Rudd is one of the most endlessly likable lead worker in the humankind . He take the drollery world by storm with his string of “ bromantic comedies ” in the 2000s and some fans doubted that he could dally a superhero when he was first chuck as Scott Lang . But it ’s reasonable to say he ’s nailed it .

How ? Because he play Scott as a Paul Rudd character , andaudiences love Paul Rudd reference . Rudd ’s unequaled line bringing earned him all the large laughs inAvengers : Endgame – like when he thoughtDie Hardwas a time travelling movie – so he ’s now as endear to Marvel fan as ever .

Don’t need it: Ant-Man is a product of the Infinity Saga

Ant - Man was integral to the Infinity Saga ( the 22 MCU movies fromIron MantoAvengers : Endgame ) , but now , we ’re enter into a fresh saga that wo n’t need him as much . While the MCU ’s hereafter seems inscrutable at the moment , we do screw thatit necessitate Shang - Chi , the Eternals , and further adventures for Black Panther and Doctor Strange .

As a product of the Infinity Saga , Ant - Man might not correspond into this new age of the MCU . We ’ll still desire him around for the larger team - ups , but looking forward into the MCU ’s bright future might signify leaving Ant - Man ’s solo movies behind .

Need it: Fans want to see more Luis

MCU lover areclamoring to see more from Michael Peña ’s Luis , and if there are no moreAnt - Manmovies , that may never happen . Frankly , fans would watch a whole spin - off TV serial followingthe day - to - Clarence Shepard Day Jr. operations of Scott and Luis ’ security firm X - Con , so this could be a way to keep fan - favourite quality around without making anotherAnt - Mansolo movie .

Sadly ,   Disney+ has already announceda monumental slate of upcoming Marvel seriesand none of them involve Luis , so it seems unlikely – even though fans are pray for it and would buy their whole subscription to Disney ’s new cyclosis serve just to see it .

Don’t need it: Ant-Man is better in wider ensembles than his own movies

It takes a certain character of character to carry their own movie . A character like Iron Man or Thor or Captain America has the emotional complexness to carry a motion picture on their own and deliver both the comedic and striking goods . But Ant - Man ’s great second are when he ’s punctuating a scene feature a few role with a joke .

In his own solo movies , he does this to undercut Michael Douglas ’ heartfelt monologues as Hank Pym . But he ’s not really suitable to carrying his own movies . Plus , his powers make him better at wait on his fellow heroes in struggle than in reality fight down his own – for object lesson , when he enlarge himself to save Rocket , War Machine , and the Hulk from the wreckage of Avengers HQ .

Need it: There’s more of the Quantum Realm to explore

While the Quantum Realm meet a major role in bothAnt - Man and the WaspandAvengers : Endgame , there ’s stilla lot of unanswered dubiousness and unexplored areas . The Quantum Realm scenes in theAnt - Manmovies were filled with Easter nut , include an entire city trapped inside a bubble that some fans have seen as a trace at the Black Knight ’s cosmos in the MCU .

ProducerStephen Broussard has hinted thata potentialAnt - gentleman 3would explore the Quantum Realm more:“Maybe there ’s more [ in the Quantum Realm ] than we realized . Clearly , Janet ’s been up to something and has dissimilar dress on and some weapons . Where did those make out from ? ”

Don’t need it: Avengers: Endgame gave Ant-Man’s arc the perfect ending

Every character in the MCU , no matter how big or small their role is , hasa fleshed - out fictional character arcthat takes them from the moment we come across them , develops their flaw and redeeming qualities , and ultimately gives them emotional closure .

At the end ofAvengers : Endgame , Scott Lang received that stop . When we first met Scott , he ’d just acquire out of prison house and no one was uncoerced to give him a chance . InEndgame , he ’s still disregarded and thought to be the biggest cretin in the elbow room when he bear witness up at Avengers HQ and suggests go through prison term via the Quantum Realm to spare the world . But in the end , that ’s exactly the plan the Avengers go with . His concluding moment in the picture , sitting on the porch with Hope and Cassie , gave his character arc the thoroughgoing ending .
