‘Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania’ End Credit Scene Is From ‘Loki’ Season 2

Warning: Spoilers for Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania.

In an exclusive interview to Entertainment Weekly , An’Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania’ Director Says Peyton Reed that the Second Post Credit Scene in the movie was taken directly from Loki Season 02 , which is set to come out late this year. Kang the Conqueror is the next Big Bad in the MCU and it makes complete sense that everything going to centered around him.

“Jonathan Majors, I think, just leapt off the screen as Kang the Conqueror. And it really felt like, ‘OK, this is pointing the way toward, you know, a whole new phase for Marvel,'” Reed said. While speaking with ET’s Ash Crossan for Spoiler Sessions, the director broke down the two moments that close out the film.

“We knew we wanted to sort of just give a tiny taste of the potential of what some of these Kang variants are and brief nods to [Pharaoh] Rama-Tut, [Scarlet] Centurion, Immortus,” Reed said, referring to the three notable versions of He Who Remains. But he stops short of calling them the “prime” versions of these characters. “Maybe they’re variants of those versions,” he teased.

“As the MCU has been steering towards these multiversal stories… it made sense to sort of adapt [Kang] for that. And it worked with what was going to go on in Loki, so very early on as they were developing Loki and we were developing this movie, it just made sense,” Reed noted.
