Since I learnt that Ant-Man and the Wasp Quantumania might be essential prior viewing for Loki Season 2, despite that film getting bad reviews, I planned to watch it but put it off. Now Loki Season 2 is out but I still haven’t seen Quantumania.

Is it impermissible to just skip the movie? I also only watched half of Multiverse of Madness. Does it matter? I just want to see Loki

    Tentatively, since there’s only one episode of season 2 of Loki out, no. The first episode basically takes up right where season 1 left off. I didn’t notice any huge references to anything beyond the prior season of Loki.

    But that might change if later episodes use anything from Quantumania.

      I thought maybe Quantumania would automatically be referenced when Jonathan Majors (Kang / He Who Remains) comes back in since he’s in both projects

        Without giving too many details, the post-credits of Quantumania reference Loki. But the scene in itself is more of a spoiler for S2.

        If you haven’t seen a lot of trailers for Loki, it might actually be better NOT to watch Ant-Man first.
