Ant-Man And The Wasp Trailer Breakdown: 15 Things You Need To See
14. Hope And Hank On The Run
Marvel Studios
Although Hank and his daughter Hope were never implicated in the disturbance at Pym Technologies, it would appear as though they've done something to irk the authorities in the sequel.
Following on from a later scene in the trailer, Hope and her father are surrounded in a nearby field by Blues Brothers-levels of law enforcement, presumably because they've nabbed something (or someone).
It's not clear how they work their way out of this initial calamity, with both lacking any of their suits to shrink down and evade capture, but this scene could provide us with a clue as to what drives the plot in the sequel. 2015's film was a heist movie through and through, but with the addition of a partner - and a new villain to boot - could it be taking a buddy cop route?
No one knows yet, but it's not difficult to imagine the film's villain spurring the FBI to recruit specialists in Hank and his partners in crime, should the situation require that kind of response.
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.
