Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania producer on why this one’s not an Avengers “palate cleanser”
“Coming after the Avengers movies, phrases like ‘palate cleanser’ had been thrown around about the Ant-Man movies,” producer Stephen Broussard tells Total Film (opens in new tab) in the new issue of the magazine, featuring Oppenheimer on the cover. Look back and sure enough, 2015’s Ant-Man directly followed Avengers: Age of Ultron and Ant-Man and the Wasp similarly came just a few months after the epic Avengers: Infinity War in 2018, when purple baddie Thanos threatened global extinction. But this time it’s different. “[We felt] if we’re getting a chance at part three, we want the film to be big and feel central to the future of the MCU.”
