As confirmed on Marvel's official website, The Marvels has been delayed to July 28, 2023 (Ant-Man 3's previous release date), while Ant-Man 3 has been moved forward to February 17, 2023, the spot previously occupied by The Marvels.

Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania, the third entry in Paul Rudd's MCU series, will see 2021's sexiest man alive reprise his role as Scott Lang, while Evangeline Lilly will once again play Hope Van Dyne, AKA Wasp. Joining the leading duo are Hope's parents, Michael Douglas as Dr. Hank Pym, and Michelle Pfeiffer as Janet Van Dyne. Kathryn Newton (Pokemon Detective Pikachu, Freaky, Supernatural) is a newcomer to the Ant-Man 3 cast and will play Scott Lang's daughter Cassie. Finally, Loki star Jonathan Majors will portray big bad Kang the Conqueror in Ant-Man 3.

After earning an English degree from ASU, I worked as a corporate copy editor while freelancing for places like SFX Magazine, Screen Rant, Game Revolution, and MMORPG on the side. I got my big break here in 2019 with a freelance news gig, and I was hired on as GamesRadar's west coast Staff Writer in 2021. That means I'm responsible for managing the site's western regional executive branch, AKA my home office, and writing about whatever horror game I'm too afraid to finish.
