THR:

The most important vision behind a Marvel Studios production belongs to the studio, not the filmmaker.



Peyton Reed Wants ‘Ant-Man’ to Remain “Its Own Little Corner” of the Marvel Universe

Ah, yes; now shrinking movies are gonna be a thing (Downsizing is totally a riff on that Ultra Q episode).

I wonder if this spells good or bad news for the James Cameron/Guillermo del Toro version of Fantastic Voyage?

I saw Ant-Man on DVD. It featured both the Scott Lang and Hank Pym version of the character. I like how the writers made Hank Pym a mentor to Scott Lang and I like Scott's appearance in Captain America: Civil War. I can't wait for the sequel.

^Wow, I hadn't figured that angle: when so many of Wright's team walked from Ant-Man with him he had extra incentive to get a movie into production because he wanted to keep those people employed!

Just caught the trailer and... WOW. This movie looks like a TON of fun. Not even sure what the storyline/plot is, but the visuals just blew me away. They have really mastered the shrinking/growing F/X and some of the gags, however briefly they were onscreen, looked absolutely amazing and wickedly ingenious. Cannot wait for this.

With this engaging new trailer, plus all the good spoiler-free early review news coming in about BLACK PANTHER, this looks to be a triple threat homerun year for Marvel ...and its fans.

Once again it appears my suffering through marvels current animated series on Disney Channel has paid off. They had been showing off The Ghost quite a bit, now I know why as he appears to be the antagonist of this new film. The film looks amazing & fun. Looking forward to it in the summer.

Also...you heard it here today. Even though the end of spider-Man homecoming showed off certain potential villains, I'm betting heavy on Task Master to show up.

^ I never understood when they release blockbusters in the UK first for the same reason. Seems you'd want it in the biggest market before stuff started leaking.

Have they addressed when Ant Man and Wasp takes place with respect to Infinity War?

I thought it took place concurrent with IW, thus explaining why Ant-Man wasn't there in IW. He took some kind of deal to work with/for the government or something so he could be with his daughter.

^^ I think in one of the trailers Ant-man asks Wasp if she would have been with him on Captains side or Iron Man's side, and she responds "guess we'll never know".

I would expect it to take place in between the Wars (Civil and Infinity) but since the film is being released after IW it could take place after (remember how Winter Soldier upended S.H.I.E.L.D mid-season with its impact to the MCU)

I fully expect Ant-Man and The Wasp to end with Scott about to kiss Hope when suddenly she turns to dust.
