Pfeiffer was sceptical about Ant-Man

-

MICHELLE PFEIFFER, WHO stars in the upcoming Marvel film Ant-Man and the Wasp, reveals she wasn’t very familiar with the superhero till recently. “My first exposure to Marvel would have been Spider-Man and then Iron Man, both of which I really loved. I guess I discovered Marvel through my children,” Pfeiffer said.

“Then I saw Ant-Man, and I really loved it. At first I thought Ant-Man? I was not familiar with the superhero Ant-Man. By the sound of it I was a little sceptical, but I really was pleasantly surprised. I’ve always been such a Paul Rudd fan, and the movie was really smart and really funny and also grounded in reality in way that it had this very unusual tone to it that I think set it apart from a lot of the other superhero movies that I had seen,” she added.

Marvel Studios will soon be back with the second instalment, Ant-Man

and the Wasp, directed by Peyton Reed. The movie is set between the events of

Captain America: Civil War and Avengers: Infinity War.

Rudd’s Scott Lang/Ant-Man and Evangeline Lilly’s Hope van Dyne/ The Wasp team up after Hank Pym (Michael Douglas) asks them to battle Ghost (Hannah John-Kamen), who has the ability to be invisible and intangible. Pfeiffer essays role of Janet van Dyne aka the OG Wasp alongside Douglas’ character. On the cast, she said: “All of these actors are actors that I’ve admired over the years and wanted to work with. So it’s been exciting for me to work with people that I admire and respect.”

It’s been exciting for me to work with people that I admire and respect, on Ant-Man and the Wasp.” Michelle Pfeiffer
