‘Ant-Man And The Wasp’ Trailer: At Least Fewer Characters Will Die In This MCU Film
If you’re still reeling from the downright depressing ending ofAvengers: Infinity War, here’s some light-heartedness to cheer you up. A newAnt-Man and the Wasptrailer has arrived, loaded with jokes, action, and definitely not a bunch of scenes of heroes dying en masse.
I have a feeling that Marvel is counting onAnt-Man and the Waspto be a bit of a palate cleansers following the doom-and-gloom meal that wasAvengers: Infinity War. The newAnt-Mansequel is actually setbeforethe events ofInfinity War, which frees it up a bit to be its own story and not worry too much about the big, shocking reveals from the latestAvengersfilm. The newAnt-Man and the Wasptrailer below certainly looks free of the angst fromInfinity War. See for yourself.
Ant-Man and the Wasp Trailer
I have to wonder how many people are going to go intoAnt-Man and the Waspassuming it takes placeafterthe events ofInfinity War, and how many of those same people are going to be very upset when they find out it doesn’t. I’m sure the marketing will do its best to sell the film as a prequel, of sorts. But the marketing forRogue One: A Star Wars Storydid the same thing, and plenty of people still went into that film thinking it was set afterThe Force Awakens.
Ant-Man and the Waspis set in the aftermath ofCaptain America: Civil War, and findsPaul Rudd’s Scott Lang, aka Ant-Man, struggling to be both a super hero and a father. Soon, Scott is back with Dr. Hank Pym (Michael Douglas) and his daughter Hope van Dyne (Evangeline Lilly), aka the Wasp, on an all-new mission. At some point,Michelle Pfeiffer gets involved, which is a plus.
All things considered, this is a pretty good trailer. But no newAnt-Mantrailer will ever top this.
Ant-Man and the Wasphits theatersJuly 6, 2018.
