The conference began to discuss Rudd's work as a writer.

"He's given funnier lines," Douglas said.

"His best lines in the movie are not in the script," said Lilly.

"Paul is such a generous writer that he is an actor," said Reed. "Paul always has the picture in mind when he writes and plays."

"I'm trying to think of the film as a whole and think of each character," Rudd said. "It has been a collaborative effort more than anything I've ever worked and to think that I actually wrote it would be a gross overestimate." He credits Peyton Reed and others, with a focus on Eric Summers and Chris McKenna who "did the hard work".

Most discouraging sequence for Reed?

"There were a lot," said Reed. "We really wanted to go crazy and go crazy with Pym particle technology …." What was created a real technical challenge. Maybe the biggest was that we did a car chase that took us all over San Francisco … it was probably the biggest challenge. "

Will there be more use and importance of Quantum Realm in the future?

"There are things you see there that Peyton put there," Feige said. "Where and how they pay off in the short term and the long term remains to be seen."

Lilly's thought about The Wasp and get into the action?

"I loved being a blade runner, it was pretty cool, the gag in the restaurant scene is pretty cool," Lilly said. "She has complete control the next second, it was just fun to see her take the coat because it was something that she was ready and ready to do all her life and that she was ready. she wore this costume for a whole movie! "

How was he approaching the film from a perspective of being a sequel to The ant man and Captain America: Civil War.

This is a sequel to both movies. "We could not ignore what happened to Scott Lang in this movie in this movie … There are ramifications of the Sokovia and Scott Agreements being under house arrest, it really gave us a natural starting point."

"One of the things that was nice was that it gave us a little more freedom than we could have done," Rudd said. "Scott was established … it was like we had a little more freedom to play in humor … The first time we were still modulating, it was one of the most fun parts about it. "

Fishburne is invited to play a Marvel role.

"This is not the first Marvel role to come," said Fishburne, after having heard the Silver Surfer in The four fantastics. "I am a reader since the age of eight, I am a fan of my life, I loved the movies and what they did with the MCU … I realized account that I was on Marvel's ground and that I was working on ABC Blackish and I remembered that I had worked with Louis Desposito and that I had to go talk to them and say, "Hey, what do I have to do to be in the cinema?" And they were kind enough to say, "We'll think about that fish!"

"It's just a matter of going through the whole process of 'how tight can we do it?' Make things happen …" says Reed. "Then you go to the editing room and it's a totally different process … It's constantly refining the thing … I've always wanted these movies to last less than two hours …" needed to have a lot of movement towards the front. Ball, Stevn McQueen's film, and What's up doc who has one of the craziest lawsuits across San Francisco. There were inspirations for the film. "

Evangline Lilly is asked about the MCU character she would like to work with in the future.

Evangeline Lilly says her favorite scene in the film was Luis's montage. Rudd points out how difficult these scenes are.

Why do that Ant-Man and the wasp with two heroes in the title?

"The film before Civil war Feige said: "It was undoubtedly in the label on the first Ant-Man movie that was there for the beginning was about his discovery that We always knew that the next would be Ant-Man and The Wasp and she would go up to … "

"Originally, Wasp was going to be introduced in Captain America: Civil WarLilly said, "I have never voiced it at the time and secretly I thought to myself, 'Hmm … she's not going to have a film about the origins. 39; … Then I received a call: "We decided not to go to civil war. … and then they said what I thought they were going to say, "We want to make a movie dedicated to this female superhero". … I still did not know that there would be a double billing and it was a surprise when I received an e-mail with a cap.

More John-Kamen and Fishburne in the future?

"What's always great is that it's the hallmark of a movie that works when people say" I love those characters, when can we see them again? " ? ", Said Feige.

"Hope was born in the family business," Rudd said. "The first was pretty clear that she would be really good at that … The idea that Scott was never really sure of how he could be Ant-Man and still be a good parent, if these two things could really coexist, it's one of the things we hang on … it's really a duet and a team and we work very well together … Clearly, she's really good at it .
