We have been hit plenty of news regarding reshoots these days. Just this week we learned that X-Men: Dark Phoenix would be delayed for reshoots, as well as The New Mutants (again). Now, we have another film to add to the mix: Marvel’s Ant-Man and the Wasp. An Italian film site by the name of Bad Taste (via Screen Rant) reports that the Ant-Man sequel will soon be undergoing reshoots.
The film’s entire opening sequence — shot in South America — apparently did not go over well with test audiences, and will be redone entirely. Additionally, it looks like some reshoots will be happening in Los Angeles.
This hasn’t been confirmed by Marvel Studios (yet) so take this with a grain of salt. So far there is no need to worry: It’s a good sign when studios listen to the fans; Hopefully Ant-Man and the Wasp will be a better film with these changes.
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.
