Phase Five of the Marvel Cinematic Universe officially begins next winter, with Ant-Man and the Wasp: QuantumaniaThat’s when we’ll officially meet Jonathan Majors’ Kang — not He Who Remains, not some variant but the real-deal Kang the Conqueror, the mega-villain who will supposedly become the focal point of the next few hears of the MCU. This guy makes Thanos look like Paste Pot Pete.

We get our first official look at him in the new Quantumania trailer, which sees Paul Rudd’s Ant-Man, Evangeline Lilly’s Wasp, Michael Douglas’s Hank Pym, and Michelle Pfeiffer’s Janet van Dyne all sucked back into the Quantum Realm, which we learn is the domain of Kang. And Mr. Kang wants Ant-Man’s help. Given that the next Avengers movie is titled The Kang Dynasty, I do not see this working out well for our Marvel heroes.

Take a look at the trailer below:

Here is the film’s official poster:
