So my theory

i can see this being a “King Loki” of sorts, a variant that truly died on the rainbow bridge in the first Thor movie but given a second chance at power by Kang reviving him for whatever purposes Kang feels he needs to utilize him. Maybe by being the “fall guy” of sorts for if the TVA is ever compromised. Indulging King Loki by feeding him lies of him being the superior Loki of all timelines and NEEDING him for his agenda. King Loki takes him up on this because it feeds his ego but as time goes on being the “Time Keeper” he begins to regret and feel hollow or he’s just a stubborn piece of s\*\*\* that is inebriated by power and he’s having a blast. I can see the later being likely.

I think ultimately Kang will be a 4D Chess Strategist threat, he (like Strange) uses time to his advantage and carefully manipulates every little detail to get where he wants to be but i also think he wants there to be a challenge to it as well, since he loves conquering. He wants to feel like he’s earned it. So he won’t be OP Busted

good theory

Kang had very specific things he needed to have happen in order for whatever agenda he wants to be accomplished.

1\. Stark had to survive on Titan that day, especially to invent Time Travel.

2\. Ant-Man HAD to be stuck in the Quantum Realm for 5 Hours to come out 5 years later for the Avengers to utilize Time Travel.
Weaken the universe’s (especially Earth’s) trust in it’s governments.

3\. Stark HAD to sacrifice himself

I feel like Kang’s introduction in Ant-Man 3 is primarily because he’s setting out to privatize time travel.

Pym Particles being a vital part of being able to do it in the first place

Hope, Scott and Hank are gonna get in the way to stop him from whatever he’s planning but he’s one step ahead of everyone, whatever they try to do to stop him, he wants them to do it in order to achieve his goals.

HUGE REACH HERE BUT

I think it is definitely possible that Kang could have manipulated what possibilities were out there for Strange to see, maybe he wanted him to believe there was one specific scenario

so excited for the future of the mcu

I’m not gonna lie. I have been extremely impressed by Phase 4 so far

I just want the irredeemable Ant-Man so bad now lmao

Same man it feels like something special is brewing

Agreed. The new characters and teams we’re getting There’s something for everyone

fr i thought i'd lose a little interest after endgame bc it was packed with a lotta satisfying s*** and was a really good conclusion to the first saga

but the D+ shows and movies for phase 4 shaping the mcu up to be even more interesting than before tbh

So glad loki turningout wellcuz midfalcon discouraged me

so hype for them to go deeper into them comic storylines

Phase 4 to me is the make or break of the MCU after Endgame’s success and so far it’s really giving everyone a reason to stay invested and it feels experimental then ever before, the possibilities feel endless

I already feel more hype for NWH and MoM then i did for Endgame (not IW tbh) which is insane to me

Really solid and strong start. What’s really gonna have to sell people is Shang Chi and The Eternals which going off track record of capturing people’s attention

GOTG sold people, so i can see them doing that again for these characters

even tho we got the biggest CBM event with Infinity War/Endgame,it really feels like its only the beginning.

These shows allow them to go so much deeper into the lore,its amazing.

Cant wait for more

Who’s the new holy trinity for the MCU for you?

I think it’s definitely gonna be

Strange, Maximoff and Parker

you hit the nail on the head

add loki and ant man and those are my top 5 fave characters atm

look at that line up in OP man.

Moon Knight
She Hulk
Eternals
MoM
NWH
Thor
Wakanda
Secret Invasion.

this is gonna be so heat

I hope Ant-Man 3 is his Ragnarok.

Lot of potential with this character.

He was a MVP in Endgame

Strange, Stark and Lang

Carried heavy

Here's my theory
Immortus created the TVA to stop Kang variants from entering the mcu and that's why the Qeng building and the Sphinx are in the the void. Sylvie kills Immortus and Ant-Man 3 is Kangs origin by having him be Nathaniel Richards who came from the 40th century started Qeng and is trying to get Pym Particles to time travel more and he'll be full on Kang The Conqueror in the next avengers movie

this s*** is so crazy lmao

i really do man,we've talked before that i loved the ant man movies but it really feels like they can elevate them so much more.

Look at what Kate did with Loki,or as you said Taika with Thor.

Just let them go batshit with the visuals,Paul Rudd deserves it

thats only in the next year and a half too.......elite content incoming fr

this makes sense too,would be dope

they got F4 and x-men later down the line too man we are eating
