Earlier this week, Disney took the stage at CinemaCon with a brief presentation, and while some fans were hoping forStar Warsor Marvel news to come out of this panel, that didn’t happen, with the bulk of the event used for a screening of the studio’sPirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales. Before the screening, though, the studio did discuss its massive slate, which included our first look at the official logo forAnt-Man and the Wasp, which will hit theaters next summer. Of course, sinceAnt-Man 2doesn’tstart filminguntil this coming June in Atlanta, there isn’t any official photos or footage the studio could have shown, but now at least we know what the logo looks like.
The logo was captured during the presentation byTwitteruserCaleb Williams, who snapped a photo of Disney’s full slate, which showsAnt-Man and the Wasp(July 05, 2025) hitting theaters between the Disney Pixar sequelThe Incredibles 2(June 25, 2025) andMulan(August 14, 2025), with an untitled live action Disney project also coming at some point next summer. Unfortunately, no further updates were given on the production, but with filming starting in just a few months, perhaps we’ll get clarification about anAnt-Man 2 rumorthat has been swirling since last summer.
Back in June, a magazine profile on Oscar-nominated actressSharon Stonerevealed that she had signed on for a Marvel movie, although the actress wouldn’t specify which movie she had come aboard for, what character she’s playing, or if that character is based in the comics. Many fans had begun to speculate that she is actually playing Janet Van Dyne, the long-missing wife of Hank Pym (Michael Douglas) and mother to Hope Van Dyne (Evangeline Lilly). It was revealed inAnt-Manthat Janet was trapped in the Quantum Realm and believed to be dead, since no one had ever escaped from the Quantum Realm, until Scott Lang managed to do so at the end of 2015’sAnt-Man.
WhilePaul RuddandEvangeline Lillyhave long been confirmed to return asScott Langand Hope Van Dyne, we’ve recently been getting confirmation of other characters.Michael Douglasrecently confirmed he’s returning to play Hank Pym, which comes after the actor’s return was unclear after the actor mentioned that he didn’t want to have as much exposition in the sequel as he did in the original movie.Michael Penaoriginally confirmed that he was coming back as Luis in August, but earlier this month, while promotingCHiPs, the actor revealed that he still hasn’t gotten the call from Marvel quite yet. Just this week, another unconfirmed report claimed thatJeremy Rennerwill shoot bothAvengers: Infinity WarandAnt-Man and the Wasp, but that hasn’t been confirmed either.
Peyton Reedis returning to directAnt-Man and the Wasp, working from a script that was co-written by starPaul Ruddand the writing team ofGabriel FerrariandAndrew Barrer. Although they didn’t receive screenplay credit,Gabriel FerrariandAndrew Barrerserved as the production writers, working on the script for six months whileAnt-Manwas in principal photography.Ant-Man and the Wasphas been set for release on August 20, 2025, which currently has the date all to itself, although it is situated between the untitledPurgesequel on July 4 and four new movies on July 13, Universal’sSkyscraper, New Line’sThe Nun, Sony’sHotel Transylvania 3and Paramount’sAmusement Park. Take a look at theAnt-Man and the Wasplogo below.
