Nice, I like him. This is apparently deep into pre-production. This is likely the film Pfeiffer was talking about, Lol. Ugh.

I heard that filming for this would not be until June 2021 and The Flash was filming late 2020/early 2021. Imagine if Michelle was doing both?

For what it's worth, I spoke to my friend who drew the costume art for Maleficent, who is working on Ant-Man 3 and he said he doesn't think Pfeiffer will be in it, they will use it as a launching pad for other characters.

He also said he's starting work on it in November and they will film in March 2021, so maybe he'll have some more info for me soon.

Maybe she only signed a contract for 1 film and would be easy to write her out of this film. If her screen time is anything like Ant Man and the Wasp then I'm glad.

I consider this as GOOD news lol We'll see if he is right, but since he is doing the costume art, I trust him. I'm kind of conflicted here, since they cut so much of her out of the last Ant-man and only gave her like 5 seconds in Endgame I feel like yeah what's the point, walk away and never look back, but there are many of her fans who love these films and I feel bad for them if she isn't going to continue with the character, it's such a missed opportunity. They hyped up her casting and then just wasted her and that character is so important in the comics from what I gather. I don't get it. I don't get how they would explain he not being in the next film if Michael Douglas will be. Kill her off offscreen? Maybe recast her with Zeta-Jones or Sharon Stone?

The rumours are really picking up steam that this will be a set-up movie for future MCU adventures, specifially Cassie Lang and the New Avengers. By the sounds of it, there really won't be much room for Pfeiffer to do much anyway.
Like it's been said above, I'm conflicted:
- Janet Van Dyne is a siginificant founding member of the Avengers team in the comics and is well liked by Marvel fans. You would think Feige would want to show the character some respect. - Michelle Pfeiffer was pursued aggresively by Peyton Reed and Lily was loudly banging the drum for her. She was a big get and even featured in Marvel's big 10 year anniversary picture (as if she had a big future in the franchise). - Being apart of a high profile franchise can only help Pfeiffer's career and help secure interesting roles in more indie projects.
Unfortunately (as we all know), the character was wasted in 'Ant-Man and the Wasp'. being treated as a Macguffin and limiting Pfeiffer's screentime to the bare minimum. With all that being said, I'd rather she use her talents elsewhere now. If she needs a superhero gig, let her team up with Michael Keaton again as an older Selina Kyle.
I suppose the question is, did Pfeiffer leave or did they write the character out?

Oh God no. Don't get me wrong. I love super hero movies. But she was wasted completely in the last Antman and the Avengers as well, so I hope this isn't her next project.

I won't mind if it is, IF they expand her role and screen time and that article makes it seem like they would. I'll have to ask my friend if he has heard anything new about the project and if he still feels Pfeiffer won't be involved.

Yeah I wouldn't mind Michelle doing this so long as she is given much more screen time than Ant Man and the Wasp.

MUCH MORE screen time, that also opens the door for Janet to be a player in other sub-franchises. They have A LOT to make up for after Endgame, in my opinion.

Thankfully this new Ant-Man has a new writer...but then again, it was the same director who chose to cut most of her scenes, lol. I'll ask my friend this week if he has heard anything new.

I was listening to the podcast when I read this on here ha ha
Yup, she said filming Spring 2021
Well, we all knew it was either gonna be this, The Flash or Turn of Mind...it's not everyone's first choice, but at least it's something; a placeholder until some director sees French Exit and gets inspired to cast her in another project
Let's hope for the best.

That's right, you've got a bone to pick and a lecture to give on loyalty ha ha jk they're probably sworn to secrecy.
I'm sure now that Michelle has stated this publicly, it'll get some new mentions on some film blogs.

I'm excited. I know a lot of you guys are dubious but I'm hoping for the Red Queen storyline from the comics.

Ooooh, can you explain the Red Queen storyline? I'm the son of a librarian, which meant I read zero comics as a kid so don't know the origins lol
Ant-Man is my favorite of the Marvel film offerings, so I'm for her doing this, even tho I hate hate hate that they cut that fabulous intro with her and Douglas from the last one and they used the lesser of the two quantum realm intros they filmed with her. Still, at least we got to see them after the fact.

In the comics its Hope that becomes the Red Queen. The Red Queen is a villain.
I read an article a long time ago now that suggested they could use this for Janet as there was a suggestion that the Quantum Realm can alter people (such as with the Ghost).
Just speculation on my part but I am hopeful and I still don't see why Michelle would accept a role that wasn't intended to be interesting or important eventually. That would be so unlike her.
But who knows... I'm not a comic person either and that's all I know but could be interesting

On the one hand, I'm happy she has a project and will actually be filming next year.
On the other hand, I think Marvel is going to waste her talents and keep her on the sidelines.
I would have preferred she teamed with Keaton again in THE FLASH... oh well.
