Ant-Man: 10 Ways It Can Link To The Avengers

7. Thunderbolt Ross

To date, The Incredible Hulk seems to be the most forgettable film of the MCU. No one from that movie€™s cast has returned, and the only real mentions of it have been extremely minor, despite Tony Starks' appearance at the end where he tells Thunderbolt Ross that they€™re putting a team together. But then that was it; presumably, that idea was written off with the line in The Avengers about how The Avengers Initiative was scrapped. However, a new piece of information has popped up regarding Ant-Man. Apparently there are some scenes set in the 1960s and one of these scenes involves Pym clashing with a soldier by the name of Ross. It gets even better. Reportedly, the post-credits stinger will feature William Hurt's Thunderbolt Ross appearing to Pym in the modern-day, directly spinning out of Age of Ultron, and Ross trying to recruit Pym for the pro-registration side of the fight.
