  • New ‘Quantumania’ Promo Art Offers Closer Look at Ant-Man, Wasp, and Cassie’s Suit

    New ‘Quantumania’ Promo Art Offers Closer Look at Ant-Man, Wasp, and Cassie’s Suit

    2023 is finally upon us. We’ve entered a new year and Phase for Marvel Studios, as we’re about to see what else they might have up their sleeve. To kick off the new era, we finally meet Kang the Conqueror in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. While this part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe was always more of a comedy, the third entry will seemingly up-the-ante in a spectacular way with Cassie Lang also growing into a new role.

    The first artwork already gave away she’ll become a hero of her own, but the new artwork is offering a closer look at some of the updated designs of these characters. As shared by @MCU_Facility, there are a few new pieces that offer a look at the various designs and Ant-Man’s family still remains the most consistent across the various characters, especially with Lang’s costume combining elements from her father’s and van Dyne’s.

    Interestingly enough though, it seems like Cassie won’t be getting a superhero name just yet. In the comics, she’s known either as Stature or would eventually get the name Stinger; something a bit closer to that of Ant-Man and Wasp.

    There’s also a creative use of the Pym Technologies logo, which has somehow generally become a representative of the various Ant-Man characters.

    They might still be trying to keep some secrets from viewers, and it’s being hinted at as the next big event film for Marvel Studios. So, it’ll be interesting to see if Quantumania can offer that what some had hoped to see in the more comedic-driven entry of the MCU.

  • UPDATE: ‘Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania’ Already Started Filming in Turkey

    UPDATE: ‘Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania’ Already Started Filming in Turkey

    UPDATE: Here is a quick update on the article, as @Orochimarusama_ was kind enough to translate the statement by Mehmet Ersoy, which reveals that filming has already begun in Cappadocia. They also seem to be eyeing several other locations, so we will see if there is even a chance we might already see some shots from the set make their way online as filming continues.

    Even as the pandemic lurks, Marvel Studios is not holding back on getting their productions together. They’ve been hard at work on their future slate even if there is still a possibility Black Widow gets another delay that may affect their entire line-up. Just a few days ago, we got our first look at Thor on the set for Thor: Love and Thunder rocking a nice Thunderstrike-inspired costume. The film is slated to release in May 2022, so they have enough time to get productions. There is a good chance that other films for that year might be entering productions in the coming months. Marvel Studios might try to keep potential delays into account and plan in some additional months just in case. It looks like one of those films might also already eyeing its filming locations, as the Turkish Minister of Culture and Tourism, Mehmet Nuri Ersoy, has let slip that Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania is filming in Turkey on the Turkish TV channel Habertürk TV.

     

     

    I won’t claim I speak a lot of Turkish but the channel is discussing tourism and the pandemics’ impact. They then namedrop Ant-Man during their section on the countries’ filming economy. I think I heard out that Cappadocia might be the location they are eyeing for the upcoming production. It is a beautiful location that is famous for its Hot Air Balloon Flights and Pigeon Valley, where you can find the ruins of Uçhisar Castle. Speaking of, that location could be a perfect backdrop for the Quantumverse’s secret inhabitants that was teased in a deleted scene from Ant-Man and the Wasp. Cappadocia is a beautiful place and has been used for a variety of films and TV shows in the past. It seems rather likely that the Ant-Man threequel is slowly getting ready to start production, especially as Michael Douglas did hint at him growing his goatee in time for production again.
