Captain America: Civil War - 10 Ways It Must Set Up Phase Three

7. Establish Ant-Man€™s Next Mission

It€™s hard to say just what kind of a film Ant-Man And The Wasp is going to be. The revenge-inspired heist narrative of the first film worked once, but it's hard to see that working against without Scott's learning curve or Hank's vendetta. Thses story beats won€™t really work again so how do they proceed? They could continue down his original route and have an industrial espionage-focused story, perhaps against a saboteur like the Ghost. Conversely, he could star in a massive disaster film alongside the Wrecking Crew. Ant-Man doesn€™t have tons of acclaimed villains or story arcs by himself to draw from, so it would be nice to get a sense of how the sequel is going to treat him. It€™s not clear at all what Scott Lang is going to be up to when we next see him and Civil War is the perfect opportunity to both hint at what he€™ll be fighting, as well as what kind of personal growth he€™ll be looking to achieve.
