Background[]
Comics[]
Scott Lang, a man forced into thievery to save his ill daughter, stole the Ant-Man costume and some Pym-Particles from Hank Pym to commit robberies. Eventually Hank allowed him to keep the Ant-Man identity if he reformed, so he did and became a reserve member of the Fantastic Four, and later joined the Avengers
Marvel Cinematic Universe[]
Scott Lang, a man forced into thievery to give back the money VistaCorp stole from its customers, is branded a criminal and is divorced and distanced from his wife, Maggie, and his daughter, Cassie. After breaking into a house and finding a strange suit with shrinking capabilities, he is approached by Hank Pym, the former superhero Ant-Man, who offered him a chance at redemption. He does so, and Pym gives him the Ant-Man suit, making him his successor as Ant-Man. In one of his attempts to steal Darren Cross's Yellow Jacket suit, he is followed home and they dueled using children's toys, enlarged when they both used Pym Particles. He defeated Cross by going sub-atomic into YJ's suit, the same way Pym lost his wife. However, Scott made it out alive as Cross blinked out of existence.
During the events of Captain America: Civil War, Falcon mentioned to Captain America that he knew a guy. Scott was later awoken in front of the Anti-Registrators, where he noted "thanks for thinking" of him. While fighting Iron Man's team, he used his Pym Particles to grow into Giant-Man. However, when the novice hero Spider-Man used an idea based on Star Wars Episode V's AT-AT takedown, Scott was shrunken to his usual size. He then, as Tony Stark's consciousness, was able to disable the genius' weaponry. However, after being defeated, he was later incarcerated on the Raft like most of his teammates. When Captain America arrived to free all of them, Ant-Man escaped, but later made a deal with the FBI to be put under house arrest so that he could still spend time with his family.
Later, in Ant-Man and the Wasp, he had a strange vision of Janet van Dyne, who had remained trapped inside the Quantum Realm, and with whom Lang became psychically entangled with while he was there, in the events of Ant-Man. This resulted in Lang being kidnapped by Pym and Hope van Dyne, who had built a Quantum Tunnel machine and intended to use it and Ant-Man to rescue Janet. These plans went awry when Ant-Man and Wasp were confronted by both Ghost and Sonny Burch, who wanted to steal the Quantum Tunnel machine for their own reasons. Ant-Man, Wasp, and Pym eventually succeeded in rescuing Janet from the Quantum Realm, and Ant-Man was able to return home to finish his house arrest.
However, during a trip to the Quantum Realm to gather quantum particles for Ghost, Ant-Man became trapped as Pym's entire family was turned to dust by Thanos. Ant-Man was unable to escape until 2023, where he regrouped with the Avengers and suggested that they use the Quantum Realm as a means of time travel to the past. Ant-Man then officially joined the Avengers and participated in the Time Heist, where they successfully managed to acquire the six Infinity Stones from alternate pasts and used the Stones to resurrect the victims of Thanos' Snap. However, an alternate Thanos had managed to follow the Avengers through time, and Ant-Man fought in the resulting Battle of Earth. Thanos and his army were eventually destroyed, after which Lang celebrated the victory with Van Dyne and Cassie, and attended Tony Stark's funeral.
