Every Headline MCU Protagonist Ranked From Worst To Best

14. Scott Lang - Ant-Man Duology

Moon Knight

Paul Rudd is one of the funniest and most beloved actors currently working in Hollywood, and his role in the MCU is one that, while relatively small, is still one that has made an impression.

Scott Lang is one of the most down-to-earth characters we’ve seen from the MCU. We see this through the care he has for his daughter and his willingness to do anything for her; a classic storyline done before in storytelling, yet it still tugs at our heartstrings to see Scott go the extra mile for her.

His relationship with Hope also shows us that he’s someone who can improve on himself, even if he’s made bad decisions in the past, and grow to become the hero we need.

While some were skeptical of this iteration of Ant-Man - considering the original hero was Hank Pym - Scott Lang still ended up becoming a lovable character who, while having a niche role in the overarching story of the MCU, is still one that is necessary as he gives us the perspective of the everyman which we don’t often see in these movies.
