Hannah John-Kamen to appear in 'Ant-Man and the Wasp'

Actress Hannah John-Kamen, who has earlier worked in TV shows like "Misfits" and "Black Mirror", has joined the cast of "Ant-Man and the Wasp" in a yet unknown role.

"Ant-Man and the Wasp" is the sequel to (2015) "Ant-Man", which starred Paul Rudd as the thief-turned-superhero Scott Lang, Michael Douglas as scientist Hank Pym, and Evangeline Lilly as Pym's daughter, Hope van Dyne.

All three are returning for "Ant-Man and the Wasp" with John-Kamen joining the cast. It is expected that Lilly's character will adopt the latter's alter-ego, reports ew.com.

In 2015, "Ant-Man" director Peyton Reed said that he had intended to take the sequel in unexpected directions.

 

"I think we've established these characters and, as a moviegoer, I really want to see that happens to these characters. We're going to take the second movie into some very unexpected directions," he said.
