It’s been almost a month since Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania released, and we’re still discussing it. Phase 5 started with a movie that has garnered a lot of opinions and, in our case, a lot of questions. Scott Lang (Paul Rudd) ant-marched into our hearts and definitely had us looking out for the little guy. The Cosmic community had so many Quantumania questions from our last podcast that we didn’t have enough time to answer them all, so thought we’d do a special edition of the show and dive into all that and more.
In this episode, host Ayla Ruby, along with fellow podcasters Brian Kitson, and Anthony Flagg delve into everything from Jonathan Majors’ Kang to our thoughts on Cassie Lang’s future. And although he couldn’t be on the podcast in person, cosmic writer Alex Perez answered some of those curious inquiries in writing. (You can listen to our previous Ant-Man podcast with Alex by clicking here.)
