"Maybe you just need someone watching your back? Like a partner." Disney has released the first official trailer for the Marvel Studios sequel Ant-Man and the Wasp, once again directed by Peyton Reed of the first Ant-Man movie. Paul Rudd returns (and is credited on the screenplay) as Scott Lang, also known as Ant-Man, who appeared in Captain America: Civil War during the big battle at the end. Evangeline Lilly plays The Wasp, who finally gets her own super-powered shrinking suit with wings and blasters in this one. The cast includes Michelle Pfeiffer, Hannah John-Kamen, Walton Goggins, Michael Peña, Judy Greer, Abby Ryder Fortson, Laurence Fishburne, David Dastmalchian, Vanessa Ross, Randall Park, with Michael Douglas. It looks like Fishburne might be the villain, and I'm so down for this. Enjoy.
Here's the first official trailer for Peyton Reed's Ant-Man and the Wasp, direct from YouTube:
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 re-balance his home 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 their past. Ant-Man and the Wasp is once again directed by filmmaker Peyton Reed, of the films Bring It On, Down with Love, The Break-Up, Yes Man, and the first Ant-Man. The screenplay is by Chris McKenna & Erik Sommers, and Andrew Barrer & Gabriel Ferrari, and Paul Rudd. Disney will release Marvel's Ant-Man and the Wasp in theaters everywhere starting on July 6th this summer. Your thoughts?

Not that I'm complaining. I'm just saying, let's not be too serious about it. It's enjoyment, it has no ambition or creative possibility to be more than fun. Cheers ...

I enjoyed the first one but if all these films are connected, and Infinity Wars is being played out as a game changer (i.e. the ultimate badass rolls into town forcing drastic action) then one doesn't get the impression that a lot has changed. You don't get the feeling that much has lingered from what technically should have happened just before this. I'm also still not feeling Hope/The Wasp. She's just so unlikeable with her endless one upmanship over Scott and her sneering derision for him.

1) this'll surely be set before Infinity War, right after Civil War 2) sexist much?

Really, is that where we are now? Express that you don't like a character and give reason for not liking them by the way they treat others and it's because I'm sexist...what a joke.

Yea, Antman x Wasp takes place right after Civil War; x probably around the time as Black Panther. Both films respectively lead into Infinity War. I questioned why Antman was coming out after Infinity War if the story takes place before. I think something happens in Antman x Wasp because the 2 isn't in Infinity War.

Maybe super hero movies aren't your thing...

They used to be my thing big time. But for some reason over like the past two years I find myself rolling my eyes whenever I see that another one is coming out. Superhero movie 252,653, great! Wonder how this one will end?

Fingers crossed!

Great trailer and this looks like one of those sequels that eclipses the original because the characters are already established. Budget looks a bit larger than the first from the looks of the trailer.

This looks like lots of fun. The shrinking/enlarging tech gags are great - they're really taking it to the next level. The only thing that I don't get is the chronology. This film takes places before Infinity War - before Thanos shows up and all hell breaks loose - but Evangeline Lily is not billed as a cast member in Infinity War, which is strange since she's basically a female Ant-Man with blasters. Paul Rudd is allegedly in Infinity War, so I'm just confused as to how they'll fit this into the greater MCU plot.... 1st world problems
