Marvel releases new Ant-Man and The Wasp image and official synopsis

January 16, 2018 by Ricky Church

While fans of the Marvel Cinematic Universe are rightly looking forward to the release of Avengers: Infinity War, there is another instalment of the MCU set for release this summer. Ant-Man and The Wasp sees Paul Rudd return to the role as Scott Lang, aka Ant-Man, as he is joined by Evangeline Lilly’s Hope Van Dyne, who is suiting up for the first time as The Wasp. Marvel has released a new photo from the film, showing Ant-Man and Wasp suited up together onscreen. Check it out here…

Marvel has also released a new synopsis for the film, offering some new details on what we can expect in Scott and Hope’s latest adventure. The synopsis reads:

From the Marvel Cinematic Universe comes Ant-Man and The Wasp, a new chapter featuring heroes with the astonishing ability to shrink. In the aftermath of Captain America: Civil War, Scott Lang grapples with the consequences of his choices as both a super hero and a father. As he struggles to rebalance his life with his responsibilities as Ant-Man, he’s confronted by Hope van Dyne and Dr. Hank Pym 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 the past.

Ant-Man & The Wasp sees Peyton Reed returning to the director’s chair and stars Paul Rudd (Scott Lang), Evangeline Lilly (Hope Van Dyne), Michael Douglas (Hank Pym), Michael Pena (Luis), David Dastmalchian (Kurt), Abby Ryder Fortson (Cassie Lang), Judy Greer (Maggie), Bobby Cannavale (Paxton) and T.I. (Dave), while new additions to the cast include Michelle Pfeiffer as Janet Van Dyne, Laurence Fishburne as Dr. Bill Foster/Goliath, Hannah John-Kamen as The Ghost, Walton Goggins as Sonny Burch and Randall Park as Jimmy Woo.
