Ant-Man joins Marvel Strike Force, The Wasp, Groot and Star-Lord also incoming

June 28, 2018 by Amie Cranswick

Ahead of his big screen return next week in Marvel Studios’ Ant-Man and the Wasp, Ant-Man has become the latest new recruit to Nick Fury’s super crew of heroes and villains in the mobile action RPG Marvel Strike Force.

From now, players will be able to unlock new content based on Marvel Comics’ size-bending super hero, whose unique ability to use Pym particles to shrink himself down to the size of an ant or supersize himself when necessary makes him an essential member of any Strike Force.

In addition to Ant-Man, the coming weeks will see the addition of his bad-ass partner and original Avenger The Wasp, followed by Groot and Star-Lord of the Guardians of the Galaxy.

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.
