5. It'll Be The First Time We See The MCU Post-Infinity War
Walt Disney Studios
Seeing as how the film releases just a few months after Infinity War, Ant-Man and The Wasp will have a lot to deal with.
Infinity War is guaranteed to shake up the MCU in a big way, and, with multiple deaths almost certainly arriving at some point or another, it's apparent that perhaps Ant-Man and The Wasp won't be as fun-loving or as mischievous as its predecessor. No doubt it'll still be a fun film, particularly so given who's involved, but it also has the added responsibility of navigating a universe emerging from what could very well be a cataclysmic event.
Given how both Ant-Man and The Wasp have always been massive influences in The Avengers, it wouldn't be at all surprising to see them possibly acclimatising to heavier roles within the group. Doubly so, if Infinity War's body count is as high as some suspect.
WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well.
In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
