Judy Greer Returns For “Ant-Man” Sequel





Judy Greer has signed on to reprise her role of Scott Lang’s ex-wife Maggie Lang in “Ant-Man and the Wasp” for Marvel Studios and Disney Pictures.

Greer played the role opposite Paul Rudd as Scott in the first film. Much of the key cast such as Evangeline Lilly, Michael Douglas and Michael Pena are back for the new one, joined by Michelle Pfeiffer as Janet Van Dyne and Laurence Fishburne as Dr. Bill Foster.

Peyton Reed is helming the new film which is targeting a July 6th 2018 release.

Greer’s schedule seems insane. She has regular voice work on FX’s raunchy animated comedy “Archer,” the “Storybots” kids shows, and recurring on screen roles on “Casual” and “I’m Sorry”.

On film she was in “War for the Planet Of The Apes” earlier this month, has the indie comedy “Lemon” next month, is currently filming both Clint Eastwood’s “15:17 To Paris” and Richard Linklater’s “Where”d You Go Bernadette,” and has roles coming up in “Our Souls at Night,” “Measure of a Man,” “Pottersville,” and “Public Schooled”.

I saw this in the recent forums column on the side, and misread it, thinking it said Ant-Mac And The Wasp. That would have been a much different movie, consisting mostly of @ant-mac sitting on his front porch, spraying a wasp with a can of Raid, and then sipping whisky out of his teacup.

And yes, I'd pay money to see that movie. Especially if there was a Director's Cut from Peter Jackson.

 

[Doctor Omega]

I would like to see an Ant-Mac and Wasp movie, made by Disney, if only so that Kathleen Kennedy could fire the director on the spot and then bring in an acting coach to explain to the hapless young actor that they had hired exactly how he should be playing the role of A.M!

It would not surprise me if there were also whispering of a potential Ant-Mac movie franchise during shooting too! Spin off movies, tv show tie-ins and the like!

In the above circumstances, I don't suppose that WASP is an acronym that stands for What A Sexy Pussy?

Hey, it doesn't hurt to dream, does it?

And yes, I'd pay money to see that movie. Especially if there was a Director's Cut from Peter Jackson.

Can't you think of a better way to spend a week?

Actually, when they eventually get around to filming my superhero film, I hope it finally gives me the opportunity to do battle with my arch nemesis... Ant-Rid!

Can't you think of a better way to spend a week?

Yes, but it involves Scarlett Johannson, Mila Kunis, and a hot tub filled with fruit cocktail. And neither girl will return my phone calls.

Just watch out for those pineapple chunks...

They can get into anything.

PS - If we don't hear from you for a week, do you want us to send in the medics, the morticians or the media?

With my family history of heart failure, I'll go with morticians. But I will certainly die with a smile on my face.

I daresay we'll have trouble getting the coffin lid down too...

Details: While there’s a definite fan base, few put the first “Ant-Man” high on the list of Marvel Studios’ best films. There’s a much appreciated smaller scale to the whole thing and a charming cast, but it’s lacking in any real engaging stakes, has a terrible villain and its comedy is pretty slim. The switching out of Edgar Wright with Peyton Reed seemed to take its toll in the form of an overly manufactured and ‘safe’ product emblematic of Marvel’s conformity problem.

This time though, Reed has free rein from the get-go along with bringing in a stronger supporting cast including Walton Goggins as the villain, Laurence Fishburne in a key role, the return of Michael Pena and his two friends, and Michelle Pfeiffer playing Michael Douglas’ long-lost wife. Hopefully will be as much an improvement as we got between the first and second “Captain America” films.

As part of a 2018 preview guide released this morning, Disney Pictures has released new photos and synopses for two of their biggest 2018 films – “Ant-Man and the Wasp” and “Ralph Breaks the Internet: Wreck-It Ralph 2”.

Spoiler

With “Ant-Man and The Wasp,” the story is set in the aftermath of “Captain America: Civil War” as Scott Lang grapples with the consequences of his choices as both a superhero and a father. Trying to rebalance his life with his responsibilities as Ant-Man, he’s confronted by Hope van Dyne and Dr. Hank Pym with an urgent new mission – forcing him to once again put on the suit and learn to fight alongside the Wasp as the team works together to uncover secrets from the past.

In “Ralph Breaks the Internet: Wreck-It Ralph 2,” Ralph and Vanellope leave Litwak’s arcade behind, venturing into the uncharted, expansive and thrilling world of the internet – which may or may not survive Ralph’s wrecking. There’s also Yesss, an algorithm who plays an important role in Ralph and Vanellope’s journey within the internet.

“Ant-Man and The Wasp” opens July 6th while “Ralph Breaks the Internet: Wreck-It Ralph 2” opens November 21st.

“Ant-Man” Sequel Reshoots Entire Opening?





Marvel Studios’ “Ant-Man and the Wasp” is reportedly about to undergo reshoots in Los Angeles which will see the entire opening of the movie redone reports BadTaste(via CBM.

Additional photography is common practice on large-scale films and according to the report there’s nothing unusual about these particular ones. They say the opening scene takes place in South America and that it didn’t test very well with audiences, so the whole sequence is being redone on location in Los Angeles – with this scene taking up most of the reshoots.

Paul Rudd’s Ant-Man character along with Jeremy Renner’s Hawkeye have both been notably absent from the marketing for the upcoming “Avengers: Infinity War”. “Ant-Man and the Wasp” hits cinemas on July 6th.
