1) A Guy Who Crawls Up Walls – Ant-Man
As well as teasing two versions of the Wasp, Ant-Man also gave us probably the most exciting bit of foreshadowing in a Marvel movie yet – our first proof that Spider-Man exists in the MCU! Probably…
In Luis’ story-within-a-story at the end of the film, when Sam Wilson is asking after “a guy who gets small” he is told that “we got guys who can jump. We got guys who swing. We got guys who crawl up walls.”
Though Kevin Feige has said that these descriptions were deliberately vague in terms of superpowers, any mention of wall-crawling in a Marvel context will instantly make us think of Spidey. But is this a moment of foreshadowing for Tom Holland’s upcoming first appearance as the web-slinger in Captain America: Civil War, or proof that Marvel geeks are fixating too much on every throwaway line. You decide!
It is definitely the first one, though.
