Ant-Man And The Wasp: Quantumania is sure to be a truly insane movie. The third Ant-Man film will likely be exploring the Quantum Realm in a whole new way with two characters, Scott and Janet, who have spent years in it and after the invention of time travel in Avengers: Endgame. Not much is known about Ant-Man And The Wasp: Quantumania beyond the fact that Scott Lang, Hope Van Dyn, Janet Van Dyn, Hank Pym, and Cassie Lang will all be leading the film.

It looks like Darren Cross aka Yellowjacket could be returning and Jonathan Majors will make his debut as Kang the Conqueror after making an appearance in Loki as He Who Remains. This could mean that Ant-Man And The Wasp Quantumania is tied to the larger multiverse storyline, possibly even connecting it to Loki.

Bill Murray has revealed that he will be making an appearance in Ant-Man And The Wasp: Quantumnaia much to fans surprise and delight. The comedy legend hasn’t revealed who he will be playing, but knowing Marvel it is sure to be a character that is both hilarious and gets fans excited.

7 MARVEL CHARACTERS THAT BILL MURRAY COULD PLAY IN ANT-MAN AND THE WASP: QUANTIMANIA


THE STRANGER

In the comics, The Stranger, an Elder of the Universe, is drawn to Earth by the growth of superhumanly powered individuals, specifically the mutants. Instead of the mutants being what draws The Stranger, it could instead be the rising number of other superpowered beings, heroes in general after the battle with Thanos, or even the Quantum Realm.

The Stranger at his core is searching for knowledge, so were he to be drawn to Earth to learn and discover the Quantum Realm and the experiments that Pym and the Van Dynes are running could be the perfect way to gain his attention. Bill Murray would likely make this character a funnier character than he is often portrayed as in the comics and could create an interesting dynamic especially between himself and Hank Pym with The Stranger being inevitably smarter.

TVA AGENT OR BUREAUCRAT

With the TVA back in action and a version of Kang seemingly running the operation, Bill Murray could be playing one of the numerous bureaucrats or low-level agents that are a part of the agency. Scott and the others are undoubtedly going to be messing with time and possibly even the multiverse in Ant-Man And The Wasp: Quantumania.

So, it wouldn’t be a surprise if they were to draw the attention of the TVA. Kang himself could be part of the reason why the TVA may step in. Murray could add a levity to these odd agents similar to what fans saw in Casey or Mobius in the first season of Loki especially if the team is attempting to, unsuccessfully, hide their experiments with the Quantum Realm.

FATHER TIME

Father Time, Elder of the Universe, is one of the weirder Elders of the Universe, which is saying something. He hasn’t shown up in comics often with his most notable appearance being when he attempted to abduct Captain America to add to his collection of legendary Americans which included Johnny Appleseed, Paul Bunyon, John Henry, and many others.

Given the Quantum Realm’s strange relationship with time he could be the perfect oddball character to make an appearance in Ant-Man And The Wasp: Quantumania. And if the MCU were to lean into the time element of his name he could be the perfect character to make an appearance in Ant-Man And The Wasp: Quantumania especially if messing with the Quantum Realm drew his attention to the team.
