Evangeline Lilly in talks for 'Ant-Man'

What character would she be?

No Caption Provided

We haven't heard much Ant-Man news since it was announced Michael Douglas would play Hank Pym and Paul Rudd would be Scott Lang.

Apparently we missed the news that Edgar Wright brought on Michael Pena for an undisclosed role.

The Hollywood Reporter has the latest. Evangeline Lilly is in talks to "star as the female lead" in the movie. Before you get excited, that doesn't necessarily mean Janet Van Dyne, aka the Wasp. It's possible but with Scott Lang as the lead male, well, we'll have to wait and see how the story plays out.

The Hollywood Reporter also mentions that this is not intended to be a "one-off appearance." That means if she does land the role, we could expect to see more of her in a sequel or other Marvel Cinematic Universe movie.

What are your thoughts?

she ruined Lost for me as much as Lana ruined smallville , but I didnt even know it was her in Hobbit2 till the credits.

But yes I also think Wasp. Even if she is another character, she'll be Wasp & eventually join the Avengers with whichever Ant-Man is in the same time period as the rest.

wow she ruined lost for you? did we watch the same show? i thought she was great,,,agree to disagree

Since this movie is supposed to be a heist film i hope he ends up getting the time gem which hits hank pym and makes him young again. This is the only acceptable outcome for this movie.

@theheat: Hmmm never put much stock in rumours but if it's true. I would be one happy comic geek.
