When is Ant-Man and the Wasp Set?
5 Burning Questions We Still Have After Avengers: Infinity War
Like Valkyrie and Hawkeye, Ant-Man was another important hero who was missing out on all the action. But unlike Hawkeye, we’ll learn more about his side of the story much sooner. With his solo film set for July, Ant-Man will be back in action with a brand new partner, the Wasp. One question that lingers after Avengers: Infinity War, however, is when the film takes place.
After the events of the third Avengers movie, we see half of Earth’s population slowly fading to dust. Heroes such as Scarlet Witch, Black Panther, and even Nick Fury were victims of Thanos’ grand scheme. So where does this leave the events of Ant-Man and the Wasp, then? From the upcoming film’s first trailer, the pair talks about Lang’s recent involvement with Captain America, which could be hinting that it actually takes place before Avengers: Infinity War.
With the duo tackling the quantum realm in the next film, it’s possible that time might move differently in that dimension. If so, Ant-Man and the Wasp might have been inside the quantum realm during the events of Avengers: Infinity War, sparing them from Thanos’ wrath. Whatever the case, we won’t have to wait too long to learn the truth.
