Scott tells her that she shouldn’t try to be a hero, before the two of them and the Pim family get sucked into the quantum realm and separated, with a voice-over by a man revealed to be He Who Remains, played by Majors.

Reed said during tonight’s brief panel that the new film will introduce viewers to “a lot of new characters” and “explore the quantum realm, which is not always what you think it is.”

Rudd said that the new film finds Scott “pretty pleased with himself and his role in saving the universe” — “cooling out” and busying himself with work in the aftermath.

Lilly said that after learning “how capable” her character Hope van Dyne aka Wasp was in past films, she was able to home in this time around on “her vulnerabilities and fragilities, and how she has to face those things.”

Newton added that Scott’s daughter Cassie is “just becoming who she is supposed to be,” with Majors deadpanning that “there will be conquering” as his villain Kang the Conqueror is introduced.
