This prequel to the MCU's Ant-Man trilogy is set in 1987, when Janet van Dyne disappears into the Quantum Realm. It tells of a conflict deliberately provoked by a newly awakened version of HYDRA during the Cold War. In a SHIELD lab, Howard Stark asks Hank Pym to give him the shrinking Pym particles to stop a group of radicals who have replicated HYDRA technology. Pym tells Stark that he will only use the particles himself. Peggy Carter supports Pym in this idea and trains him for the mission. He then sets off for Berlin to stop the radicals. Two days later, Pym learns about the Winter Soldier at a research centre in Berlin and attends a test of the Winter Soldier unnoticed, where he is to receive an attack order. Pym causes an explosion in the lab and believes he has incapacitated everyone present. Back at SHIELD, Pym learns from Stark who the Winter Soldier is and that Pym probably can't do anything against him because of the Super Soldier serum. Aware of the delicate situation, Stark and Carter assemble a team of Captain Britain, Wasp, Ant-Men, Black Goliath and the missing Isaiah Bradley (former Captain America) with the Black Panther's connection. The film ends with Wasp disappearing into the Quantum Realm after her sacrifice saved many lives and prevented a major conflict.
