While Marvel will bring together most of its heroes this May for Avengers: Infinity War, one character who will be absent from the party (if you can call a war against Thanos a party) is Evangeline Lilly’s Hope Van Dyne, with the studio making us wait until July’s Ant-Man and the Wasp to see the former Lost star suiting up. However, Lilly has now confirmed that she will be part of the ensemble for Avengers 4, with the actress posting on Instagram about her experience on the movie.
“I will appear in Avengers 4,” said Lilly. “Not very much, so don’t get your hopes up. It’s not gonna be a ton. But I’m in there! And I’m proud to be in there, and I’m stoked to be in there. I had so much fun on the Avengers 4 film set ‘cause they made it like a party. It was right around Christmas time and it just was like they had this tent set up with Christmas carols, and with Christmas lights, and music, so every time we would be on set or walk off of set we’d walk into this really festive environment and I was surrounded by all these rock stars who are super cool people in real life and we all got to know each other and Robert Downey, Jr. would have us come over to his tent for lunch and we’d all sit down and have a nice lunch together.”
“It ended up being what I think a lot of fans think a lot of fans imagine its like on a film set with a bunch of film stars, which usually it isn’t,” she continued. “Usually film stars all go to their own trailers and disappear and don’t talk to one another and they get on the phone with their wife or their husband or their agent or they’re the CEO of a company that they’re running and they’ve got something to do during their lunch hour, and sometimes it can be a really lonely place to be, on a film set. But Avengers was the polar opposite of that. It was a community, and it was fun, and people were really warm and kind.”
