Despite plenty of speculation and theories suggesting that the fan-favorite thief-turned-Avenger meets his demise in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, Ant-Man lives to fight another day. But, in the final battle, Kang comes very close to defeating and potentially killing Ant-Man; however, the Wasp shows up and together, the dynamic duo takes down the villain.
