While Captain Marvel fans might think that that revelation only damages their heroine’s potential to make it to the big screen, it should be classed as a good thing for the creative diversity of the MCU. The first post-credits scene in Ant-Man had Hope being bestowed by her father Hank (Michael Douglas) with an updated version of the Wasp suit once worn by her late mother Janet. The Wasp is set to team up with Scott Lang with their new adventures.

Marvel Studios announced a number of Phase III developments this morning, beginning with a sequel to this past summer’s Ant Man.
Because Marvel are shifting the rest of the Phase 3 slate around to accommodate the new movie, Captain Marvel has been moved back to 2019 and Black Panther has been pushed up to February 2018.
Additionally, Marvel Studios announced placeholder release dates for three untitled MCU films on 2020, although it is still unknown if they will be part of Phase Three, or if they will open the curtains for Phase Four.
Released on Jul. 17, Reed’s “Ant-Man” followed Joss Whedon’s “Avengers: Age of Ultron” as one of the biggest blockbusters this year.
Evan-ge-line Lilly portrayed the Wasp in the first Ant-Man film, which earned more than 400 million dollars worldwide. Prior to the upcoming film, fans are set to see Marvel’s tiniest superhero in Joe Russo and Anthony Russo’s forthcoming film “Captain America: Civil War”. Will those three slots be used for more Iron Man, Captain America and Thor movies? Spider-Man is also set to appear in the film; however, no information yet as to which side he is in.
