‘Ant-Man And The Wasp’ Featurette Highlights The Film’s Kinetic Action
Ant-Man and the Waspare at it again in yet another new featurette showcasing the upcoming Marvel film. The sequel to Marvel’s light and frothyAnt-Mancomes on the heels of all the d0om-and-gloom ofAvengers: Infinity War, and might just be what fans need right now. Watch theAnt-Man and the Waspfeaturette below.
Ant-Man and the Wasp Featurette
There have been many trailers, TV spots, and featurettes forAnt-Man and the Wasp, and the message running through them all is clear: this movie is fun. Fun is what Marvel is selling here, and fun might be just what MCU fans need after the downbeat ending ofAvengers: Infinity War. ThisAnt-Mansequel is setbefore the events ofInfinity War, which means it won’t have to deal with the fallout of that film. It can forge its own path, while telling its own mostly isolated story.
This new featurette, titled “It Takes Two”, is a quick look at some of the film’s action set pieces. It also highlightsEvangeline Lilly’sHope van Dyne, aka The Wasp. Lilly describes her character as “kinetic”, and adds: “I am constantly in motion, and there is barely room to breathe.“Paul Ruddis here as well, being his usual charming self.
I won’t say Ihatedthe firstAnt-Man, but it felt kind of forgettable. It was mostly entertaining, but the minute it ended, I had no desire to see it again. With that said, everything I’ve seen forAnt-Man and the Wasplooks really fun. Based on the footage, this looks like an improvement over the first film in nearly every way. Plus,Michelle Pfeifferis in this movie, which is always a plus.
I’m sure a lot of people want some sort of post-credit scene in this film that connects things toInfinity War, but I’d be happy ifAnt-Man and theWaspremained its own isolated thing. Let’s take a breather fromInfinity Warfor a while, and deal with its events whenAvengers 4arrives next year.
