Happy Tuesday Marvel fans, Ant-Man and Wasp are back! It's as if the studio knew we would need something after watching the epic Infinity War. And we did. So thanks Marvel Studios for this one. I'm excited to be breaking down the new Ant-Man and The Wasp trailer. We get our first look at Ghost, meet Goliath, plus more Luis? Yes!
Last we heard of Scott Lang, he had been rescued by Captain America and Bucky from the floating prison Ross put him in. Now he is dealing with the consequences of his choices as both a Super Hero and a dad. As he struggles to rebalance his responsibilities as Ant-Man and life at home, Hope and Dr. Pym need him for an urgent mission. Scott must become Ant-Man again and learn to fight alongside the Wasp, who has some awesome tech in her suit. They need to work together to uncover secrets from the past.
Who Is Ghost?
Dawn, or Ghost, is a professional corporate saboteur who is a blast from the past for Hank Pym. When Hank goes into the Quantum Realm to presumably save his wife, Ghost escapes. She has the ability to phase through matter and is a skilled fighter.
In the comics, Ghost is a man who is very skilled at programming and as a data engineer. When his lover is killed he fuses himself with GhostTech. This allows him to turn himself and any objects he touches invisible or intangible, along with the ability to hack anything nearby.
Goliath
The MCU has decided to introduce Dr. Bill Foster as an older character, much like Hank Pym. They are old co-workers, meaning Bill also has some pretty sweet abilities. Codename Goliath, he brags about his record of 21 feet. Scott replies his largest is 65 feet and Hope rolls her eyes.

I'm curious if like Hank, Bill will search out a new recruit for project Goliath. Maybe Luis? I would so be onboard for Luis the Super Hero. I mean c'mon, how amazing would that be?
Luis
Luis gets some screen time in the new trailer and I know I'm not the only one happy about it. And in true Luis fashion, we get the backstory on what is happening in Ant-Man and The Wasp. Hank Pym needs a team, and this includes Luis, Kurt, and Dave. Who would have thought it? Not Hank that's is for sure.
Wasp
And the girl power in Marvel films just keeps building. Watching Hope kick *ss and take names in this trailer makes me so happy. I cannot wait to see her in full on combat mode in the movie.
If you look at the poster below, Mama Wasp, Janet van Dyne, is in her Wasp suit too. I know this is probably because of her rescue, but I am not against seeing Michelle Pfeiffer showing everyone she still has what it takes to knock you out.
And the trailer song? Yeah it's stuck in my head but it's so worth it.
Ant-Man and the Wasp is in theaters every July 6th 2018!
My grandsons will want to see this and so will I. I’m going to mark July 7th on my calendar for a movie night with the grands. Yay!
I need to do some major catch-up. I have not seen the first one as of yet. I know I’m way behind the times LOL. It looks like a funny movie though, and I cannot wait to see it.
I didn’t even know there was a new Ant Man movie coming out. Now I am super excited – I loved the first one.
This is a movie I know my kids will really get into. They love all superheroes and I love how they make him a dad with a homelife side story.
This is another film I am sure we will be going to see, my other half LOVES all the superhero movies that are coming out. I have to admit though this isn’t one I had heard of yet.
This looks like it’ll be a fun movie. I still need to see Ant Man! I think my kids saw that one. I saw the preview before seeing A Quiet Place and it looked amusing!
I was never into comic books so I don’t know who most of those characters are. I can say that I have seen a couple of Marvel action movies and they were very good so this sounds like it will fit right in.
Like how you broke down each character and explained what was going on. Going to be a very popular movie. We will be waiting a week before we go and see it to avoid some of the crowds.
We have been in Marvel heaven all 2018 long. I think I’m just as excited as the kids are to see the next installment in the Marvel series on the big screen.
Wow! It does look like fun and it isn’t even my typical genre. I loved the way you broke it down for those of us who are out of the loop.
It’s so exciting to see Ant Man again and this time with The Wasp! I’m definitely looking forward to watching this movie soon!
I’m not much for super hero movies but this one actually looks like it may be good? I need to check it out!!
My son has been waiting for this to be shown here. Hopefully, we could see it in a big screen.
I didn’t even know about this movie! My boys will be thrilled. I will have to make some special time for us to see it!
The wasp is going to be such a fun addition to this group. My daughters will love seeing it in theaters and I am so excited for all the costumes and special effects!
Wow, I never knew about this before until I saw your post. I guess, another must-see movie after the infinity wars. I need to share the information to my girlfriends so we can already block a schedule for us to have our movie-date.
I totally needed this lol! My kids are talking nonstop about seeing this and it’s one of the few movies that I knew nothing about lol! I can be the cool mom again now.
Thanks for the breakdown! I can’t wait to see this movie. I just went and seen the New Avengers Infinity War movie and loved it.
Such a great comparison. My son saw the movie last weekend and really enjoyed it! I personally loved the Black Panther movie which makes me want to see Avengers since he’s in it. Lol.
