It looks like Brie Larson’s Carol Danvers could be following in the footsteps of Paul Rudd’s Scott Lang by taking a trip to the Quantum Realm first introduced in 2015’s Ant-Man when Scott goes sub-atomic during the climactic battle with Yellowjacket.
“There are different ways that some of these ideas appear on-screen in a few years,” quantum physicist Dr. Spiros Michalakis – who worked with Marvel to help create the concept of the Quantum Realm – tells Inverse. “Not just for Ant-Man, but also for Captain Marvel and all of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.”
It has already been revealed that Captain Marvel will revamp Carol Danvers’ origin story in order to avoid any Green Lantern comparisons, so could the Quantum Realm be the source of Carol’s powers, as opposed to acquiring her abilities from the Kree warrior Mar-Vell?
