Ant-ManCharacter guide · Paul Rudd

Scott Lang is the thief recruited to help Hank Pym protect the technology behind the Ant-Man suit. Paul Rudd plays Scott in a story that gives an unlikely recruit a chance to become a hero. His first film offers an introduction to the suit and the people whose trust he has to earn.

Keep the everyday stakes in view

The changing scale makes the action memorable, but Scott’s reactions make a useful thread through it. Watch how he approaches an unfamiliar task, asks for help and improvises when a plan unravels. His humor can make those moments inviting without making the consequences disappear.

Scott Lang, from the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Begin with Ant-Man, then follow Scott into Civil War before returning to Ant-Man and the Wasp. Civil War is a larger ensemble film; its guide provides the wider context. These are browsing suggestions, not changes to the catalog’s prerequisite ratings.
