Big heroes get small in brand new trailer for ‘Ant-Man and the Wasp’
Marvel fans got the cinematic experience of a lifetime with the recent release of the much anticipated Avengers: Infinity War. And now Marvel fans are going to get to return to one of the funnest parts of the Marvel Cinematic Universe in Ant-Man and the Wasp!
The brand new trailer has just been released and it looks like a lot of fun. Check it out below:
Here’s the synopsis:
Following the events of Civil War, Scott Lang (Paul Rudd), Hope Van Dyne (Evangeline Lilly) and Hank Pym (Michael Douglas) find themselves framed and on the run. With no one to trust but themselves, Pym designs a brand new suit for his daughter Hope and she teams up with Scott as The Wasp, and two set off to clear their names and stop a dangerous new threat to the world.
Building on from the first trailer, this new trailer for Ant-Man and the Wasp continues to shine a light on the growing partnership and romance of Scott Lang (Rudd) and Hope Van Dyne (Evangeline Lilly) who has now assumed the powers of The Wasp, whom she has inherited from her mother Janet (Michelle Pfeiffer). Rudd and Lilly again continue to build on their terrific chemistry together from the first Ant-Man and their double-team heroics produce some great action set pieces.
Lang and Dyne are definitely up against it this time and they’ll have to contend with the ruthless Ghost (Hannah John-Kamen). This criminal mastermind has stolen former Ant-Man Dr Hank Pym’s research on the quantum zone and used it to create unique phasing technology which allow her to literally walk through walls and who is now intent on global domination.
While the stakes have definitely been raised this time for Lang and Dyne there’s still plenty of fun to be had in Ant-Man and the Wasp and once again director Peyton Reed’s comedic timing is perfect. Not only do we get to see Lang goofing around with his new size-altering abilities but the scene stealing Michael Pena returns as Lang’s wise-cracking best friend Luis. And if the laughs weren’t enough the trailer is also set to Rob Base & DJ EZ Rock classic 80s rap song ‘It Takes Two’.
The new poster for Ant-Man and the Wasp has also been released and it shines a unique image on the film, including giving us a first look at Hank Pym’s wife and Hope’s mother Janet van Dyne who will be portrayed by Michelle Pfeiffer and who will have a key role to play in the Quantum Zone.
Ant-Man and the Wasp is sure to be all kinds of fun for Marvel fans and will be released in cinemas on July 5.
