What character are you most looking forward to seeing in Ant-Man and the Wasp?
Ok, don’t laugh at me, but every time I see this title I start singing it like Beauty and the Beast . . . Ant-Man and the Wasp.
Following the surprisingly, incredibly good Ant-Man film of 2015, Marvel is showcasing, Dr. Hank Pym’s daughter, Hope Van Dyne (Evangeline Lilly) who will don the outfit and moniker of her deceased mother, the Wasp. Oh sure, Paul Rudd might get top billing as the new Ant-Man, but let’s be honest, we all can’t wait to watch the Wasp kicking some serious ass in this one. And that freakin’ suit . . . !!!
And I see a familiar name popping up in the credits, one Hannah John-Kamen, who has quietly started making a solid career for herself, from Killjoys, to Black Mirror, and most recently in Ready Player One. She will be Ghost, the lead villain who looks like she has plenty of powers to ruin anyone’s day.
It will be interesting to see if any Avengers make an appearance, or when exactly this story will fall on the MCU timeline.
Either way, with the return of Michael Pena to provide some quirky comedy and the addition of master thespian Laurence Fishburne, I honestly can’t wait to see this sequel.
