Marvel’s Ant-Man and the Wasp concept art shows Hope Van Dyne in action

March 22, 2018 by Ricky Church

While everyone’s mind is on Thanos’ upcoming arrival in Avengers: Infinity War, there is still one more Marvel Studios film coming out this summer. Ant-Man and The Wasp sees Peyton Reed return to the director’s chair as Hope van Dyne joins Scott Lang on an adventure, making her debut as the superhero The Wasp. Empire has revealed a new piece of concept art revealing Hope in action during one of the film’s chase scenes. Check it out below…

Reed previously told the magazine “It was important to me, in this movie called Ant-Man and the Wasp, that she’s not a supporting character. She’s a lead character. She’s become a fully-formed hero.”

SEE ALSO: Ant-Man and the Wasp is not a romantic comedy according to its director

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 and 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.
