Laurence Fishburne and Walton Goggins....count me in for the sequel

is that Scott's daughter in the poster? did she age 6 years overnight?

 

[KevTravels]

btw the first film was 125 million. Might we see this one at 150 or 160 million?

 

[chamber-music]

I'm sure they will up the budget a bit.

Think they have to go up to make the Giant Man cgi look good.

could we see something up to 175 million in that case?

I think the plot might dictate how much size increasing we will see as opposed to shrinking. If Scott is still on the run he'd likely use shrinking over expanding more often than not I'd think.

Judy Greer is returning as Cassie's mom.

Hopefully Fatty McGoo has more to do in this go around.

 

[NotNickFury]

Oh joy. Now the awesomeness of Judy Greer may end up being wasted for a SECOND time.

 

[Web-Head]

Cool to see Judy Greer back but I wouldn't expect a bigger role or anything.

Nice. Really looking forward to the movie as I enjoyed the first one a great deal.

 

[Iceman]

I'm expecting mainly shrinking in this film rather than a whole lot of Giant Man. Especially if they are working together. Although a giant and wasp combo could work for a scene.

 

[Slick]

I'd be down for that if they could make it work.

Synopsis:

From the Marvel Cinematic Universe comes a new chapter featuring heroes with the astonishing ability to shrink: “Ant-Man and The Wasp.” In the aftermath of “Captain America: Civil War,” Scott Lang (Rudd) grapples with the consequences of his choices as both a Super Hero and a father. As he struggles to rebalance his home life with his responsibilities as Ant-Man, he’s confronted by Hope van Dyne (Lilly) and Dr. Hank Pym (Douglas) with an urgent new mission. Scott must once again put on the suit and learn to fight alongside The Wasp as the team works together to uncover secrets from their past.

 

[Venom 1988]

Based on the synopsis, are they saying that movie takes place after Civil War, in that the movie is simply released after or that this is supposed to take place not long after CW and possibly be before Infinity War?

They're just saying it deals with the consequences of Civil War in regards to Scott and Ant-Man.

 

[Venom 1988]

They're just saying it deals with the consequences of Civil War in regards to Scott and Ant-Man.

Well I get that, I'm just wondering if they're also implying that it the story itself takes place not long after or not.

 

[chamber-music]

Secrets from the past part is intriguing.

 

[MbJ]

So if they're just starting today does that confirm those previous set pics of Rudd are indeed from Infinity War?

That's what I want to know as well. Their was no clear confirmation if he was filming scenes with Cumberbatch or not and that was weeks ago.

I am thinking it will take place after Civil War. It would be weird for Thanos and his army to be wrecking the world and for Hope and Pym to be like hey leave all that and aid us.

 

[Venom 1988]

Saw this video on another site. Paul Rudd is saying its the 1st day of filming and Benedict Cumberbatch is on set as well dressed as Doctor Strange. Does that mean he's gonna be in it as well?

EDIT- After watching it again I realized the video was recorded prior to 7/31. For all we know it was recorded when they were filming Infinity War. So it may not mean anything

Secrets from the past probably refers to some of the things that happened between Hank and Jan. I'm hoping it will show flashbacks to their missions. Maybe we'll see a de-aged Douglas and Pfieffer in action. That's something I wish that we saw properly, and not just either Douglas interacting with Hayley Atwell and others, or someone in an Ant-Man suit with his face covered.

I wonder if this film could be a bit like Fantastic Voyage or Inner Space, where Ant-man and Wasp will have to journey into the Quantum Realm to rescue Jan.

I agree. This has been nagging me for a while. I'm assuming it takes place right after Civil War but before Infinity War. Thanos' invasion is a lot more dire than what some more street-level villains have in store
