If the memes are to be trusted, Paul Rudd is one of those celebrities who definitely do not age. I mean, look at him. Rudd debuted in Marvel Cinematic Universe in 2015, playing the titular role in Ant-Man, a heist comedy movie that introduced the world’s smallest hero on the big screen.

Rudd played the role of Scott Lang/Ant-Man in the original movie, and he reprised the role in 2016’s Captain America: Civil War, 2018’s Ant-Man and the Wasp, which introduced Evangeline Lilly’s Hope van Dyne as Ant-Man’s partner Wasp, and in 2019’s Avengers: Endgame. Rudd also voiced the characters in last year’s first season of the animated MCU series What If…?

Now, after the whole Thanos situation in Avengers: Endgame, the Ant-Man is also up for the new adventure. Paul Rudd and Evangeline Lilly will return as two titular characters in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, which is set to be released in July next year. Thanks to DailyMail, now we have a look at Rudd as Lang on the first set photos of the upcoming movie. Considering that director Peyton Reed announced that movie-wrapped production last year, it’s expected that these are coming from reshoots.

Michael Douglas and Michelle Pfeiffer will also return as Doctor Hank Pym and Janet van Dyne, who were the original Ant-Man and the Wasp duo when their daughter Hope was just a kid. Michael Pena is also expected to return as Luis, a fan-favorite character whose biggest talent is explaining something that previously happened (so to say).

Kathryn Newton will play Cassie Lang, replacing Emma Fuhrmann who played the character in Avengers: Endgame. In this upcoming movie, Cassie is supposedly set to become Stature, a superhero who could be one more step towards the assembling of the Young Avengers. Jonathan Majors, who played He Who Remains in the Disney+ series Loki, will return to play the villain Kang the Conqueror.

Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania is set to be released on July 28, 2023.

He's also a web designer and holds a Master’s degree in general Computer Science from the Faculty of Informatics based in Pula, Croatia. Since 2018, Lukas has worked on several portals writing about movies, TV shows, and video games. He's currently writing articles for two of them: Fiction Horizon and Comic Basics. He also has a YouTube channel in his native language, and the content there is mostly reviewing popular movies and TV shows. Lukas also has an Instagram page where he once used to post fan-made posters he made, which is something he would like to continue working on, as photo and video editing are also some of his passions. Lukas is a big movie lover who is okay with watching any kind of movie. His favorite movie is Michael Curtiz's Casablanca, but he's a loyal follower of Marvel and DC movies, as well as several other blockbuster franchises he's been following for years; Star Wars, Fast & Furious, Mission: Impossible, and James Cameron's Avatar are only some of them. His favorite director is Christopher Nolan, with Quentin Tarantino and Denis Villeneuve as honorable mentions. Lukas is also a big fan of four fantasy multimedia franchises; The Wizarding World, A Song of Ice and Fire, The Witcher, and The Lord of the Rings. He calls them "the four rulers of the fantasy genre." He loves to write about anything spawned from those franchises (books, games, movies...), as well as anything branded with the Marvel or DC logo. Video games and their adaptations are also something he follows faithfully since he's a big fan of story-driven single-player games like Assassin's Creed, The Last of Us, Uncharted, etc. His favorite video game ever is Red Dead Redemption 2.
