Marvel’s ANT-MAN was one of those films a lot of folks expected might not work. Outside of just being a weird character to begin with, the production had its publicized share of problems and setbacks, even a notable change of director… but the end result was surprisingly fun and effective. The sequel is ANT-MAN AND THE WASP, which gives Paul Rudd’s co-star and pseudo-love interest Evangeline Lilly her own shrinking suit to play with, and a few upgrades including wings and blasters. Michael Douglas is back as Dr. Hank Pym (the original Ant-Man), along with Michael Peña, Judy Greer and David Dastmalchian from the first movie, and they’re joined by Laurence Fishburne, Walton Goggins, Hannah John-Kamen, Randall Park and Michelle Pfeiffer (as Janet van Dyne, the original Wasp). The great Peyton Reed is also back in the director chair. Take a look at the new energetic trailer below along with the new theatrical poster. Let us know your thoughts in the comments… is this another surefire hit for Marvel?
