A cast list for Ant-Man and The Wasp teases plenty of flashbacks for the main characters. Marvel Studios is nearing the release of their 20th film, but it’s largely taken the backseat thanks to a great 2018. With Black Panther and Avengers: Infinity War breaking box office records to start the year, expectations are much lower when it comes to the sequel to Ant-Man. Lowered expectations doesn’t mean that fans aren’t excited though. After all the doom that came with Infinity War, audiences may just be in need of the lighthearted fun that Paul Rudd and company bring.

The ability for the film to fly under the radar for the most part has resulted in fans not poring over every detail that’s come out. Many may already be looking towards Captain Marvel and Avengers 4, too, leaving plenty of room for this sequel to surprise. Well, a full cast list for Ant-Man and the Wasp may tease some of those with the presence of multiple flashbacks.

Stitch Kingdom revealed the full cast list for Ant-Man and The Wasp and it includes young versions of many characters. First off, there are young versions of Hank Pym and Janet van Dyne that will be played by Dax Griffin and Hayley Lovitt, respectively. There’s also child actress Madeleine McGraw listed as a young Hope. Additionally, Langston Fishburne will play a young Bill Foster. There’s also Raelynn Bratten listed as young Ava, which is the same name given to Hannah John-Kamen’s Ghost.

The first Ant-Man had a few key flashback scenes, but how Janet was lost to the Quantum Realm was the biggest. Trailers and set photos indicated we’ll once again see the original Ant-Man and Wasp back in action, but now we know that won’t be all. Marvel’s shown a tendency to just de-age their actors for these scenes, so it’s unclear if Michael Douglas and Michelle Pfeiffer were involved or to what extent Griffin and Lovitt got to play the characters.

This cast list also confirms that we’ll see a version of Bill Foster that should still be in his prime. The trailers confirmed he too previously used the Pym Particles to grow, so maybe we’ll see that transformation happen. As for Ava/Ghost, that could simply be tied to her origin story in some ways. Meanwhile, the inclusion of a young Wasp should indicate we’ll get to see the entire Pym family together back in the good ole days. Whether or not that dynamic stays once Janet is rescued remains to be seen, but expect plenty of flashbacks when Ant-Man and The Wasp rolls out next month.
