Viewers angry as official Ant-Man trailer 'reveals entire plot of the movie'

The new trailer for the next Ant-Man movie is finally here... and people are p***ed.

While this kind of news generally garners an overwhelmingly positive reaction in fans, this one did not. See if you can spot why:

The third instalment of the popular franchise, Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania, sees Paul Rudd reprise his role as Avenger Scott Lang.

The basic premise follows Lang and Hope van Dyne (Evangeline Lilly) as they explore the Quantum Realm, 'interacting with strange creatures and embarking on an adventure that will push them beyond the limits of what they thought possible'.

But while all that's vague enough to create a bit of intrigue yet not ruin the entire plot, the trailer is something else.

As well as being re-introduced to Lang and the family, we also got more than a sneak peek at the villain of the piece, Kang The Conquerer, (John Majors), who is already set to take centre stage in The Avengers: The Kang Dynasty later this year.

And though there were plenty of fans excited to see where the story goes, many were left very disappointed by the new trailer.

Since it was released earlier today (10 January), plenty have hit out at Marvel for seemingly giving away the whole story in just a couple of minutes.

"The entire plot of the movie was just revealed," said one. "Who approved this trailer?!"

While another asked: "Did the Ant-Man trailer just show us the entire plot to the movie or... "

"I wish I didn't watch the latest ant man trailer, they just revealed like 80 percent of the plot," put a third.

While another added: "The new Ant-Man trailer really did make me feel like I know almost the whole plot now."

Not everyone was so bitter, though, as there were actually a fair few out there who were stoked nonetheless.

"Damn, this new Ant-Man trailer looks AMAZING," praised one.

Another remarked: "The new Ant-Man trailer looks amazing omg I'm so excited."

Someone else commented: "The entire score and everything about the new Ant-Man trailer was incredible."

Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania is set to land in cinemas on 17 February.
