For the second year on the trot, 2018 will herald three marquee additions to the MCU: Black Panther, Avengers: Infinity War, and Ant-Man and the Wasp, which shoots for theaters on July 6th. Peyton Reed is once again calling the shots from behind the lens and he’ll be directing from a script penned by Andrew Barrer and Gabriel Ferrari, who were hired to flesh out the initial treatment from Adam McKay.
With the project currently in production, the expected wave of set photos have begun to surface and down below, we have the latest batch for you. Featuring stars Paul Rudd, Evangeline Lilly and Michael Douglas, there’s nothing too noteworthy here, as we really just see the actors hanging around, with the context of the scene(s) they’re shooting unknown. That being said, it’s still nice to get another look at the trio back together again and you can bet that we’ll be seeing a lot more from the set as production continues.
Until then, however, take a look at the gallery below for a glimpse of the three aforementioned actors :
Unfortunately, little has been revealed about the narrative underpinning Ant-Man and the Wasp – which isn’t terribly surprising given that it’s still early days – but following the addition of Laurence Fishburne and Tomb Raider‘s Walton Goggins, not to mention the casting of Hannah John-Kamen as Ghost, we fully expect to learn more about Peyton Reed’s follow-up sooner rather than later.
For now, we’re definitely excited about the sequel and even though we’re still mostly in the dark about it, it’ll be nice to have Scott Lang fighting alongside a new ally in the form of Lilly’s kick-ass Hope Van Dyne. Having spent much of the original sleeper hit on the sidelines, the actress will finally get the chance to suit up and, frankly, it’s about damn time.
Ant-Man and the Wasp flies into theatres on July 6th, 2018.
