Marvel Studios took to Hall H tonight at San Diego Comic-Con 2022 to make a slate of exciting announcements, including the fact that Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania will include the fan-favorite villain M.O.D.O.K.
- Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania will be the first project for Phase 5 of the MCU.
- The film will not only include the previously announced Kang the Conqueror, but also the wildly popular villain known as M.O.D.O.K.
- M.O.D.O.K. (which stands for Mental Organism Designed Only for Killing) is the head (joke intended) of AIM, an evil group of scientists who plan to use technology to take over the world.
- The character was recently featured in his own animated series on Hulu, which was sadly canceled after just one season.
- A new poster featuring Scott Lang, Hope van Dyne, Cassie Lang and Kang was released earlier today.
