Chip n’ Dale: Rescue Rangers was a movie that not many were expecting to be so filled with insanely clever pop culture references, some that even the top easter egg hunters had difficulty finding.

From randomly showcasing Zack Snyder’s Batman fighting against ET (1982) to featuring a grown Peter Pan, it’s clear that Disney gave writers Dan Gregor and Doug Mand complete control over their wacky cameos and more.

The inclusion of “Ugly Sonic” breaks barriers and blows minds, calling back to the time of Who Framed Roger Rabbit (1988) with epic crossovers from various studios.

Now, Marvel’s crossover with Disney’s Chip n’ Dale (which is owned by Disney, haha) features Paul Rudd taking on a new superhero role:

At 1:03:30 in the film, every Marvel fan was blown away to see their favorite bug-themed crime-fighter make a hilarious cameo as himself, stating that he was initially supposed to be in a movie called “Aunt-Man” and his superhero was being “really charming to aunts.”

So in this universe, Scott Lang/Ant-Man was almost the aunt charmer!

The Marvel Universe is becoming much more than iconic characters/Earth’s Mightiest Heroes like Star-Lord/Peter Quill (Chris Pratt), Iron Man (Robert Downey, Jr.), Captain America (Chris Evans), Thor (Chris Hemsworth), Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch), the Winter Soldier (Sebastian Stan), Hawkeye/Clint Barton (Jeremy Renner), Black Widow/Natasha Romanoff (Scarlett Johansson), and Captain Marvel/Carol Danvers (Brie Larson).

Tom Holland’s Avenger, Spider-Man, is leading the way for Marvel Cinematic Universe newcomers Kate Bishop,  Ms. Marvel/Kamala Khan (Iman Vellani), Moon Knight (Oscar Isaac), Agatha Harkness (Kathryn Hahn), She-Hulk (Tatiana Maslany), Eternals’ Thena (Angelina Jolie), and more — especially with his next Spider-Man trilogy that’s currently in the works.

Marvel fans will be able to see Paul Rudd, Evangeline Lilly (Hope Van Dyne/Hope Pym/Wasp), Michael Douglas (Hank Pym), Michelle Pfeiffer (Janet Van Dyne), and Jonathan Majors (Kang the Conqueror) in Ant-Man in the Wasp: Quantumania (2023) next year!

More about Chip ‘n Dale: Rescue Rangers

In Chip ‘n Dale: Rescue Rangers, Chip and Dale are living amongst cartoons and humans in modern-day Los Angeles, but their lives are quite different now. It has been decades since their successful television series was canceled, and Chip (voice of Mulaney) has succumbed to a life of suburban domesticity as an insurance salesman. Dale (voice of Sandberg), meanwhile, has had CGI surgery and works the nostalgia convention circuit, desperate to relive his glory days. When a former castmate mysteriously disappears, Chip and Dale must repair their broken friendship and take on their Rescue Rangers detective personas once again to save their friend’s life.
