They are filming and I doubt they will fly them out. Marvel will be focusing on Thor, Black Panther, and IW the 1st two get the main attention. If they do anything it will be a quick video message to say they have started filming and who they have cast.

Micheal Pena said he starts work on the film next week.

Peyton Reed has been teasing Ant-Man & Wasp news on social media so we will get some information at Comic-Con I would imagine. No panel this year though by sound of things.

Sounds like the FBI are playing a big role in the movie.

Still waiting on word for which character will be the villain? I think it will be Whirlwind

 

[Webfoot Hero]

I think about the only things we'll get out of Ant-Man and the Wasp are some promo art, a message from Reed and/or the cast, and likely the new logo for the film.

 

[Chris B]

I'm hoping that we get a cast announcement at least. I'd really like to know who'll play Janet and who the villain will be.

 

[flickchick85]

Michelle Pfeiffer is Janet.

 

[legendkillin]

Michelle Pfeiffer is Janet.

Not a bad pick.

 

[legendkillin]

Fishburne has been cast

I guess he won't be in MOS whenever that gets made.

 

[harlequinade]

Amazing! Pfeiffer!

 

[Web-Head]

Laurence Fishburne?
Wait, forgot he's already Perry White

Tooting my own horn

This movie just caught my interest. Damn is Marvel good.

 

[Mike Murdock]

Fishburne has been cast

Why? Is there a scheduling conflict?

 

[Moridin]

Why? Is there a scheduling conflict?

Yep. Ant Man filming now totally overlaps with MoS2 filming 8 years from now.

 

[CosmicSpider]

Pfeiffer and Fishburne. Great casting. Unexpected, but great news.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

Very nice.

 

[Webfoot Hero]

So it looks like we're going to be getting the Ghost as a villain, someone who's typically associated with IM.

 

[writer0327]

Love the Fishburne casting. I've wanted him in a Marvel movie for a long time now.

 

[childeroland]

So is he out of the DCEU?

 

[marvelrobbins]

pfeiffer has got them to get my attention.wonder how this will work considering first film.

 

[Webfoot Hero]

So is he out of the DCEU?

He'll likely continue doing both.

 

[Webfoot Hero]

Really intrigued about how they'll possibly bring Janet back. Hopefully they have Pfeiffer in the Wasp suit.

What are you basing this on? Not questioning you, just legitimately curious.

 

[DyeLorean]

For some reason, this Ant-Man film is the one I'm looking forward the most (besides Infinity War, of course). There's just something about the creative possibilities of this world that I just enjoy so damn much.
And the concept art they showed sounds so exciting!!!

Hannah John-Kamen was introduced as Ghost in the video the cast did for the panel.
