Ant-Man and The Wasp Ant-Man and the Wasp News and Speculation Thread

[Dark Raven]

I just hope this film brings back the Edgar Wright elements.

If they do, we might only get this film in 2048. Scott Lang might now have to be the old mentor.

Just saw Edgar Wright's comments released today about whether he's seen Ant-Man and whether or not he ever spoke with Peyton Reed.

Holy hell is that guy salty.

 

[Dark Raven]

What did he say? Where were his comments posted?

Well they gave him plenty of time to get the film done. Lets be real it is a Marvel Studios movie that had to tie into the universe, not a Edgar Wright production. The movie came out good without him being the head man.

I haven't seen it and I haven't even seen the trailer. It would kind of like be asking me, "Do you want to watch your ex-girlfriend have sex?" Like, 'No, I'm good.'

The closest I came to it was that somebody sitting near me on a flight was watching it. And when I saw that the person sitting next to me was going to watch the movie, I thought, hmm, maybe I'm going to do some work on my laptop.

How come he said it now? I thought he'd finally get round to saying that maybe 10 years from now.

I think it has more to do with the article's author than Wright. Making Wright out as still *****y about Ant-Man is a lot better clickbait than, oh look, some guy who hasn't made anything since 2013 has a new movie out.

I suspect Wright is still a bit salty, but he's also smart enough to know that playing that angle will get this article, and thus word about his film, spread better. So he plays along with the author's lead.

EXCLUSIVE: Details on Hannah John-Kamen's Role & Luis' New Love Interest in 'Ant-Man and The Wasp' Revealed

Kamen will be portraying a character named Dawn. Though the exact nature of Dawn’s role was not revealed, she is described as charismatic, eccentric, unpredictable and damaged. It’s not clear if Dawn is a new character created for the film or if she is adapted from the comics; while there are several characters named Dawn from which to draw in the comics, none of them seem to have a rich history as a supporting character in any Ant-Man stories.

Kamen’s Dawn is one of 3 female roles added to the sequel, joining the yet to be cast Janet van Dyne and one more surprise role. While the role may well be cast at this point, we can tell you that the studio was searching for a Latino actress for the role of Victoria, who will join the cast as the love interest for Michael Pena’s Luis. Described as a bit of a “loose cannon”, Victoria will be a part of the film’s comic relief but is also described as tough and smart with a “dangerous edge.”

Sharon Stone as Janet Van Dyne the original Wasp...I sure hope so

Would people be ok with Stone as Janet? I wouldn't. Never understood her appeal as an actress, she's so boring.

 

[chamber-music]

Sharon Stone is generally better at playing femme fatales/villains than heroines.

If they are giving Luis a love interest then I hope her role is minimal. I want to see a movie about Ant-Man & Wasp. I don't want to see a movie about the comic relief side character's love life.

 

[KRYPTON INC.]

This is interesting. I thought Stone teased a small part in an MCU film? A lot thought she was referring to A-M & W.

 

[Tg11]

Either way I can't wait to see who the villain is

 

[Dark Raven]

Sharon Stone would seem more like the villain. Are we going to get Janet crossing and uncrossing her legs?

I prefer someone who is sweeter and looks more like an outright heroine for Janet. They should get someone who is bubbly and has a good comedic timing but also glamorous. Someone who could easily be a Jackie Kennedy type, which Janet was in terms of style and fashion.

If Marisa Tomei hadn't been Aunt May, she would've been a good pick for Janet. She looks great for her age and has all those qualities. We should get someone like that. This would've screamed Janet back in the day, and even would now if she had that hairstyle:

 

[chamber-music]

Either way I can't wait to see who the villain is

I have a feeling we will get multiple villains. Probably a main villain and a couple henchmen villains.

With Luis love interest I don't expect that stuff to waste time. This movie is right after IW they know fans are going to be interested in the story. If she becomes a villain that is a rival to Wasp then that may give her meaning. If the character is purely a love interest all her scenes needs to be with Luis and his group.

 

[samsnee]

I think people who want Sharon Stone just want a Basic Instinct reunion!

 

[Inhuman117]

Well the Movie begins Filming in 2 Days i hope we get Something

Micheal Douglas flew into LA this week from his home in Bermuda. He will probably be in Atlanta next week.

Jimmy woo is a interesting addition. I wonder if shield is officially back in the movie side of marvel after infinity war. Shield obviously exists on the tv side of things but isn't acknowledged in the movies.

Nice to see we're starting to get more casting news. Think we'll likely be getting more as filming starts up.
