Peyton Reed’s Ant-Man franchise operates in a much smaller corner of the Marvel Cinematic Universe than the rest of the Avengers, with Scott Lang more likely to be found protecting his friends and family than saving the entire universe. That being said, he was the person that set the plot of Avengers: Endgame in motion and came up with the idea for the time heist, so there’s every chance he could become a more integral part of the shared mythology in the future.
As a result of the more contained stories and relatively minor stakes, Ant-Man’s solo outings so far haven’t pulled in the same kind of all-conquering box office numbers as his contemporaries, with the first two being the lowest-grossing solo entries in the McU that were released following the conclusion of Phase One, but a combined worldwide haul of over $1.1 billion is hardly a disappointment.
