9 Most Compelling Theories About Upcoming Marvel Movies

9. Ant-Man Will Become Giant-Man

Whilst the critical and fan consensus about Ant-Man has been a lot more positive than the rather reserved hype suggested, there are still some that struggle with the core concept of Scott Lang's superhero alter-ego. Including Lang himself, with many wisecracks over the course of the film related to his name and slightly silly power of shrinking.

Ant-Man's appearing in the upcoming Captain America: Civil War, a full-bore superhero throw down that sees the MCU split between Steve Rogers and Tony Stark. With superheroes of that magnitude duking it out, what good is a guy who can become really small and chat to insects going to do?

Some fans think it might be an apposite time to introduce one of Ant-Man's many other gimmicks. In the comics, Hank Pym basically reversed his original formula and for a while took the name of Giant-Man. Because he could grow really, really big, geddit? A giant Paul Rudd would probably stand a better chance against The Hulk than a mini one.
