When you see Ant - Man and the Wasp , keep your eyes peeled on the Quantum Realm . It may hold the keys to the future .

“ Like the first moving-picture show there are clues in the Quantum Realm to other possibility and things , ” Marvel Studios Chief Executive Kevin Feige told io9 . “ I ’m talking frame of reference [ of film ] . ”

In the first Ant - Man , fan long believed that when Scott Lang ( Paul Rudd ) go into the Quantum Realm , there were a few frames of Janet Van Dyne , a.k.a . the Wasp , in there . The possibility was , because she popped up , she ’d act as a role in the subsequence . While it was improbably elusive , Feige and Ant - Man and the Wasp director Peyton Reed both confirmed that was true ( see the image here)—and in the subsequence , they did something exchangeable .

“ We have definitely lay some groundwork for some stuff down there … similar to what we did in the first pic , ” Reed enjoin . “ [ In the first movie , ] it was not until really DVD or Blu - ray release when masses started freeze - framing it like ‘ Wait a second base . There ’s a reflection . Is that Wasp down there ? Is it Janet ? ’ ”

It was . But , of course , neither Feige or Reed would say what is cod this meter around , or when to find it . Either way , one thing is certain . There ’s a lot more Quantum Realm this time around .

“ The Quantum Realm was daunting because the good news is the bad news , ” Reed said . “ Which is it ’s infinite and can be whatever you want it to be . ”

For Ant - Man and the Wasp , that infinity had to even stretch beyond what hearing see in the first film . Last time , Scott made it down into a place Reed calls “ The Void , ” which was dark , soundless , and felt impossible to escape from . He did get out , though , and that ’s where the pattern and thought process start this time .

“ [ By ] make this logic that it ’s potential to come back , the wheels have part turn with Hank and Hope that peradventure you ’ve get to get through that Void , ” Reed said . And , maybe , that ’s where they ’ll find Janet , who has been misplace for a long , long sentence .

Since we knowMichelle Pfeiffer is in Ant - Man and the Wasp , and that Janet was beleaguer in the last one , it ’s not a looter to say they do find oneself her in some capacity . Anything more specific than that is well left for the theater . Nevertheless , very special care was put into project the Quantum Realm beyond the Void , because the possibilities are eternal .

“ It feels like a more bare , maybe less traversed , part of the Quantum Realm , ” Reed pronounce . “ It leave the audience , hopefully , with this thought of ‘ Okay , what ’s further down ? ’ ”

Maybe we ’ll feel out in Ant - Man and the Wasp , and maybe we ’ll notice out in the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe . What we fuck for certain is the Quantum Realm in this photographic film holds some clues to that future – and audiences can get down bet on Friday when the sequel hits theaters .
