Next month, audiences will get their first look at Kang the Conqueror in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. The Paul Rudd section of the franchise is often seen as low-stakes, and, while the coming film is aiming to be more serious, when you think about it, his Scott Lang has been on a tragic and thematic journey since Avengers: Endgame which would even make Peter Parker weary.
If you’ve looked at the script which has leaked (warning, do not do so if you want to avoid spoilers), it is widely thought Jonathan Majors’ Kang will exit the Quantum Realm at the film’s end. Now, knowing this, consider how Lang will feel after being the one who helped save a huge swathe of humanity in Avengers: Endgame. Here, he is going from being tied to a small and insignificant insect who used his knowledge to help people to being a man who sprung a tyrant from a dark place and caused reality as we know it to end. Definitely has to be something that will sting and in the real world would require a lot of therapy in order to overcome the guilt. There is a lot of pain in this kind of situation and so we could see Scott develop what is a very real psychological condition.
