The Ant-Man is returning to theaters everywhere, and this time he won’t be fighting crime on his own! Scott Lang, played by Paul Rudd, is back as the Ant-Man and this time he will be teaming up with a new, yet old face to bring down the foes that threaten his existence.

The Wasp

Evangeline Lilly, who played Hope van Dyne in the first Ant-Man movie in 2015, returns to the screen as the same character -- but with a twist. Hope van Dyne will also play a big role in the action, fighting off evil as she partners up with Ant-Man as his new, more than capable counterpart, The Wasp.

According to Comicbook.com, van Dyne is a fighting machine that has skills that can compare with any superhero. The skills possessed by The Wasp come courtesy of the impressive suit designed by one Dr. Hank Pym. Pym, who is also the genius behind the suit that made Ant-Man the hero he is today, has bigger fish to fry in his second go-around, as Ant-Man and The Wasp have to battle a ghost.

Hannah John-Kamen plays Ghost, and by the looks of the trailer, Ant-Man and The Wasp are going to have their hands full!

Why Ant-Man returns

As the new trailer unfolds, the lack of confidence once possessed by Ant-Man is written all over Lang’s face. The stronger than normal pint-sized superhero is contemplating his actions and the effect of his actions on not just himself, but his family as well.

Without giving away the entire plot, let’s just say that Lang is still trying to balance his home life with his responsibilities as Ant-Man. When Lang is confronted by Hope van Dyne and Dr. Hank Pym with a new mission, he realizes he has no choice but to once again put on the suit that got him in trouble in the first place.

Not only is he reluctant to partake in another mission, Lang has to learn to fight alongside his new co-partner The Wasp.

Peyton Reed will once again be directing, and the cast will feature stars from the first Ant-Man movie including Paul Rudd as Scott Lang, Evangeline Lilly as Hope van Dyne, Michael Douglas as Hank Pym, Michelle Pfeiffer as Janet Van Dyne, and introducing Hannah John-Kamen as The Ghost.

John-Karmen has been everywhere as of late, including roles in "Star Wars: The Force Awakens," "Game of Thrones," and "Tomb Raider."

With "Black Panther" and "Avengers: Infinity War" now playing in theaters, and "Ant-Man and The Wasp" set for release this summer -- along with "Captain Marvel" to follow next March -- Marvel is once again ruling at the box office.

"Ant-Man and The Wasp" will arrive in theaters across the US on July 6.
