* BloodBrothers: What his relationship with Paxton, his daughter's stepfather, ultimately is. Both are fully a part of their mutual-daughter Cassie's life, and both men regard and love each other as brothers.

* DeadpanSnarker: He likes to snarkily hang a lampshade on all that surrounds him, like his AtrociousAlias or reaction to why Hank wants to hire him, and takes every opportunity to snark, whether [[DeadpanSnarker deadpan]] or [[ChewingTheScenery full-blown]].

-->'''Kang''': You think you could win?
-->'''Scott''': I don't have to win. We both just have to lose.

[[quoteright:1000:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/img_1952_3.jpeg]]

A variant of Scott who is an outlaw along with Rogers Hood.

* CanonForeigner: Not only did Scott never appeared in any of the ''Marvel 1602'' comics, but Ant-Man also wasn't a thing since Henri le Pym was only Giant-Man in that version.

* ComicRelief: Is played as such in his appearances in the [[Film/CaptainAmericaCivilWar team-up]] [[Film/AvengersEndgame movies]].

* PluckyComicRelief: He acts as a more goofy foil to the other Avengers when he teams up with them.

* ChekhovsGunman: In regards to the MCU's overall MythArc, Scott doesn't seem all that important in the early scheme of things, as his adventures are self-contained, and his role in Film/CaptainAmericaCivilWar was relatively minor. However, Scott ends up becoming a huge SpannerInTheWorks when it comes to the Decimation, as his [[YearOutsideHourInside five-hour/year experience in the Quantum Realm]] is what gives the Avengers the ability to pull of their Time Heist and stop Thanos once and for all.

** In ''Captain America: Civil War'', he becomes Giant-Man, one of Hank Pym's old aliases from the comics. However, in this setting, he's the ''first'' (and so far, only) character to become Giant-Man, as Hank only dealt with shrinking during his career as a superhero. This actually brings to mind Scott in ''ComicBook/UltimateMarvel'', surprisingly enough, where Scott inherited the Giant-Man identity from Pym, but he's never been Giant-Man in the 616 comics. Also, the giant superheroes joining Captain America's side in the [[ComicBook/CivilWar comic book Civil War]] were actually [[ComicBook/YoungAvengers Stature, Scott's daughter]] and Goliath, as [[SparedByTheAdaptation comic book Scott was dead during the comic event.]]

!!''Scott Lang / ComicBook/AntMan [[LegacyCharacter II]] / Giant-Man''

* AttackOfThe50FootWhatever: As Giant-Man. He first (successfully) takes this form in ''Captain America: Civil War'' to provide distraction while Cap and Bucky run to the Quinjet. As Giant-Man, Scott acquires SuperStrength and SuperToughness--enough to casually lift a gangway to fling it at War Machine--[[SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome although the growing is very taxing on his body.]] According to his second movie, his personal best is 65 feet but later, he manages to increase it to 80. Come ''Endgame'' he's pushing past 100.

* WrongTimeTravelSavvy: In ''Endgame'', Scott is the one who opens up the idea of time travel to the Avengers, but gets the rules of time travel wrong, such as firmly believing in NeverTheSelvesShallMeet. Stark and Banner, who have studied the matter from a more scientific point of view, say that taking cues from ''Film/BackToTheFuture'' and ''Film/BillAndTedsExcellentAdventure'' is ignorant and lame, much to Scott's disappointment.

* EleventhHourSuperpower: In ''Captain America: Civil War'', right after things become a little tight for Team Cap, Scott reveals he's also able to grow in seize now. This superpower allows him to distract Iron Man's team, giving Steve and Bucky the opportunity to flee.

* EleventhHourSoperpower: In ''Captain America: Civil War'', right after things become a little tight for Team Cap, Scott reveals he's also able to grow in seize now. This superpower allows him to distract Iron Man's team, giving Steve and Bucky the opportunity to flee.

* CompositeCharacter:

* WeirdnessMagnet: In ''Quantumania'', he remarks that his life does not make sense because weird keep happening to him.
* WouldHitAGirl: Training with Hope was full-contact. This served him well later during the airport fight in ''Civil War'' when he had to thrown down with Black Widow.

->''"And for the rest of you kids out there, word of advice. Look out for the little guy. Make mistakes. Take chances. Because if there’s one thing life’s taught me, there’s always room to grow."''

->''"Thinks for thanking of me!"''

** As a reference to the iconic scene from Avengers #223, Ant-Man riding on one of Hawkeye's arrows in order to get inside Iron Man's suit in ''Civil War''.
