Movies that feel likeAnt-Man and the Wasp (2018)

Just when his time under house arrest is about to end, Scott Lang once again puts his freedom at risk to help Hope van Dyne and Dr. Hank Pym dive into the quantum realm and try to accomplish, against time and any chance of success, a very dangerous rescue mission.

If you loved Ant-Man and the Wasp, the closest films we have are Everything Everywhere All at Once (2022), Alienoid (2022) and X-Men: Apocalypse (2016). All three share Ant-Man and the Wasp's kinetic and cerebral feel, which is what we rank on before quality.

Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is Thunderbolts* (2025).
