Despite the excitement surrounding Harper’s new role in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, no other details have been confirmed about his character. According to original reports, in the film he will play the leader of a rebel group in the Quantum Realm, the main location of Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, although this could of course be made up to hide the character’s true identity.
