Michael Douglas Confirms His Return To ANT-MAN 3 and Says It Will Shoot in 2021
Last week it was reported that Marvel Studios was moving forward with Ant-Man 3 and that director Peyton Reed would be back to helm it. Paul Rudd and Evangeline Lilly will be back as Scott Lang and Hope Pym, but now Michael Douglas has confirmed that he’ll also be back!
During a recent interview with Collider, Douglas confirmed that he will also be returning to play Hank Pym in the next installment, which he says starts shooting in January 2021:
“The Marvel world has really been a blast! I love them, I’m having a great time. We’re starting a third [Ant-Man movie] in the beginning of January 2021.”
With the film shooting in 2021, the movie could end up being released on one of the following release dates that Marvel previously announced: February 18, 2022, May 6, 2022, or July 29, 2022.
We have no idea what the story for Ant-Man 3 will entail, but when previously talking about the future of the MCU like Aat-Man, Kevin Feige said, “The chess pieces were arranged very purposefully after Endgame. Those that are off the board are off, and those that are still on, you never know.”
It’s safe to say that Cassie Lang will be involved with the story somehow. The older version of the character was introduced in Avengers: Endgame and she was played by Emma Fuhrmann.
Are you happy to hear that Douglas will be back as Hank? Does that mean Michelle Pfeiffer will be back as Janet Van Dyne as well? I hope so!
