Ant-Man and The Wasp

Published

on

The latest in the comic book entertainment renaissance is Ant-Man and The Wasp. A sequel to Ant-Man where we were introduced to Paul Rudd’s wise cracking, thief of a hero. Last we saw of him he was fighting alongside Captain America against Iron Man and other Avengers. Well,that sort of made him an international criminal and landed him house arrest and subsequent probation.

Everything is almost over as long as he can stay clear for three more days he’s free of house arrest. Of course, that wasn’t going to be an easy task as Hope Van Dyne and Hank Pym(the exact people he’s not allowed to be in contact with come calling for help). Help to rescue Hope’s mother, the original Wasp who has been lost ever since she went subatomic years ago.

There are a host of new faces in this one as well as old faces as well. New faces include Janet Van Dyne who is the original Wasp played by Michelle Pfeiffer and Laurence Fishburne playing an old science partner named Bill Foster. There are a few villains in this one but none as big of a looming threat as Ghost.A villain that can phase through all types of matter and is after the technology Hank Pym and his daughter have developed.

The last few villains in the Marvel line up have been fantastic with Erik Killmonger and Thanos in recent memory but, this seems to be when we lose that particular momentum as Ghost and money hungry weapons seller Sonny Burch aren’t the most compelling examples of foils to our heroes.

The returning cast pick up where they left off and slide right back in to their respective parts comfortably. With only a noticeable reduction in the emphasis on Scott Lang’s crew as characters. Some of my favorite parts involve Scott and his daughter Cassie. There is a chemistry between Rudd and young actress Abby Ryder Fortson that is touching and fun to watch. Last time was a heist film and this time has elements of that but more focus on a rescue mission. If you dug the previous Ant-Man entry then you will without doubt like this one too.

Ant-Man steals a 4 of 5 from this reviewer. Oh, and stay after for the extra scene mid credits as it explains where Ant-Man was during Infinity War.

 in Hall H at San Diego Comic-Con, Rick Riordan and Disney+ revealed that Daniel Diemer (“Under the Bridge”) will star as fan-favorite cyclops “Tyson” in the epic adventure series “Percy Jackson and the Olympians.” Diemer joins Walker Scobell (Percy Jackson), Leah Sava Jeffries (Annabeth Chase) and Aryan Simhadri (Grover Underwood) as a series regular. The Disney+ Original series from Disney Branded Television and 20th Television will start filming its second season next week in Vancouver.

Season two of “Percy Jackson and the Olympians” is based on the second installment of Disney Hyperion’s best-selling book series titled “The Sea of Monsters” by award-winning author Rick Riordan. In the new season, Percy Jackson returns to Camp Half-Blood one year later to find his world turned upside down. His friendship with Annabeth is changing, he learns he has a cyclops for a brother, Grover has gone missing, and camp is under siege from the forces of Kronos. Percy’s journey to set things right will take him off the map and into the deadly Sea of Monsters, where a secret fate awaits the son of Poseidon.

Diemer stars as Tyson – a young Cyclops who grew up all alone on the streets, and finds it difficult to survive in the human world.  Shy and awkward, with a heart almost as big as he is, Tyson soon discovers that Poseidon is his father, which means Percy Jackson is his half-brother… and that Tyson may have finally found a home. 

Diemer recently starred in the Hulu limited series “Under the Bridge” based off the critically acclaimed book of the same name and a tragic true story of a missing teen girl in Vancouver in 1997. He will next star in the indie “Thug” opposite Liam Neeson and Ron Perlman for director Hans Petter Moland. Daniel was recently seen as the lead in the indie “Supercell” opposite Alec Baldwin and Skeet Ulrich and the lead in the film “Little Brother” opposite Phil Ettinger and JK Simmons. Daniel can also be seen in the Netflix series “The Midnight Club” and recently starred as the male lead in the breakout hit Netflix feature “The Half Of It” from producer Anthony Bregman and director Alice Wu. He is a graduate of Victoria Academy of Dramatic Arts in Vancouver.

Created by Rick Riordan and Jonathan E. Steinberg, season two of “Percy Jackson and the Olympians” is executive produced by Steinberg and Dan Shotz alongside Rick Riordan, Rebecca Riordan, Craig Silverstein, The Gotham Group’s Ellen Goldsmith-Vein, Bert Salke, The Gotham Group’s Jeremy Bell and D.J.
