Ant Man and The Wasp Leaks

Well, my boss is in big trouble. Last Monday I got my hands on the ant-man and wasp script. It was sitting in their desk and I read part of it on their lunch break. I kept going back and forth reading it and then going back to work incase they came back. Every single day they left it on their desk during lunch. Ive now read the whole script.

It was dated feb 2017. Ant-man and the wasp spoilers seem obvious, however, WARNING, MAJOR MAJOR....MAJOR Marvel Cinematic Universe Spoilers to follow. As Ant-man and The wasp makes direct reference to events that happened after Civil War and before their film. There is no way to conclude what film these events happen in, but sepculate away.

>Film opens with Scott on a mission
>he is transversing around pipes all shrunk. He has to evade a rat, lots of running and sliding and use of the ants , scott is in a tight spot and can't just get big again
>He is sneaking in and pym is guiding him. With many comments of how this was a ridiculous idea
>pym says he has finally made it out, but he may be too late
>Scott turns a valve and we cut to Cassie walking out of school and the sprinklers turn on and start showering her and her classmates, she laughs, looks around longingly and then smiles.

>We cut to Hope chewing out Scott and Pym about doing something to wreckless, they could have been caught.
>pym says it was for his daughter and little things in life matter, reminding her how difficult it was to ger her a carebear when she was 5, implying he and her mom shrunk to steal one
>Scott shrugs and nods, but hope insists that his notorious status should be taken seriously, with a direct reference to spider-man being a vigilante in NY


>we cut to scott who goes to work in shop in SF, Luis greets him and Scott heads to the back and begins working on phones and fixing some things, using his laptop. He gets a video call from his daughter who is really excited, they talk about the sprinklers doing off at school.

>Hydra are working with the cross particles and having horrible results replicating it. Carson is walking with a scientist and they got past a room that has hazard tape, it looks torn with a spiral patten to it
>the scientist says they have a new idea to try to calculate the equations. We see a bunch of ultron drone parts and the heads are all linked together to their server room.
>carson reference the danger of the this and scientist insist they've physically re-wired them all, closed network, no wifi, no ability to even move

>We cut to paxton in a park, who is looking around. Finally he feels something under his foot, it's scott shrunk down.
>paxton lets him into a bottle cap and brings him home, cassie gets a nice surprise.
>paxton distracts maggie, who eventually comes in and sternly talks to nothing as scott shrank. Maggie is worried what kind of effect scott is having on cassie as a masked illegal criminal
>scott talks with maggie and paxton a bit about the avengers and how scott isn't really with them
>there's someone at the door, the open it, it's barton, who asks if scott his here
>Scott acts like he doesn't know him.

>cuts to barton and scott driving up to the Pym place. Lots of talk of how he even found him, barton saying the 2nd time is easier than the first.
>they get inside and talk with pym and hope. Barton shows them details about hydra work and accidents happening, and the cross particles. Pym burshes it off, they won't solve it. Barton shows him satelite photos, one just off dirt, one of a spiral crater and one of rubble in the crater
>barton highlights that whether they solve it or not, this is dangerous and barton wants a safe to dispose of the cross particles and anything else hydra has.
>there is talk of stark and hawkeye says "believe me, even if he and I were on speaking terms even he could not afford the long distance call it would take"

MY DAD WORKS AT MARVEL!!!!!!

>film opens with
fuck off.

>we cut to barton who is climbing around the rubble he showed pym, lawying low.
>enter scott on a flying swarm of ants and the wasp who flies ahead of him. Pym is monitoring from a van and we see Luis is the driver.
>action set piece of scott and hope taking on hydra guys, who have unique tech, some mech suit type stuff, lots of goons and gadgets. Barton is staking out anyone who tries to flee.
>carson looking worried, gets in a suit and ativates it. It seems to create a vacuum around. Pym has eyes on it and says it is not stable.
>be blasts out in a tornado and starts ripping the lab apart. Hope is trying to collect all the cross particle containers.
>barton can see in the tornado and makes a shot onto Carson which stops him and he falls from the air.
>it was only temporary as the tornado whips up again and is stop and go in its destrcution, make its way toward the town. Scott feels he has no choice and turns into giant-man.
>hope is trying to fight against the toward, they're both trying to get to carson. The action and struggle continues as the towns people are all taking notice. Barton see's the police on the way and gets back to the van with Luis.
>barton is frustrated as pym isn't in the van, Luis is explaining about how pym said he would go to the lab and he had this sweet idea on how to dissolve the cross particles, but like didn't want anyone to know the formula.
>Scott and Hope are able to stop Carson, but hope can't get his suit off, it keeps spasming sometimes, but now have the police and military surrounding them. Scott is pretty drained from being giant-man. Hope says there's no time tells scott to shirnk, even he passes out, which he does. Shrunk down hope saves them and they make their escape

>Back in the van they're monitoring pym, but he's gone off camera. Hope is worried, but barton says he's got radio contact and none of the camera ants have picked up any hydra, it seems empty. They go back to worrying about carson and his suit being in police custody. Too concerned they follow the van carson was take away in

>pym is in the hydra lab using pym particles and a device to vaporize the cross particles.
>that's when pym notices the ultron network. The two of them begin to talk, Pym saying he knows what he did, and ultron saying he knows what pym did, and is impressed with the particle.
>the back and forth continues with how ultron understands it and inentionally gave them close, but false equations. Pym is examining all the heads and network as they speak. Ultron talks as if these are his last moments.
>pym shakes his head and talks about how he is harmless now and killing him would not help anyone.
>ultron agrees, and mentions the quantum realm and brining back janet

>A giant helicopter with a huge cage shows up and ross gets out. He has his men transport carson in it, they can't figure out how the suit works either.

>scott and luis are making snacks in the van and joking about good eats.
>Pym is in contact with hope and barton and says he is headed home, he has taken care of the cross particles. They're still trying to find a way to get carsons suit

>the team is trying to come up with a way to get him, they know the suit is unstable and could go off, but they're also wanted, so they can't just tell ross. They realize the path they'll take, they'll fly the chopper directly over phoenix arizona to redenvous with an airplane.
>barton says with the amount of surveilance they have, flying into the container is risky. Barton has another idea.

>cut to scott on the end of an arrow and hawkeye firing it at the helicopter, with hope at the back end
>they get into the container and begin to try to take carsons suit off, hope is trying to at least get the replicated cross particles out safely.
>carson says it was a pretty neat idea getting big like that, and wanted to try it himself
>carson then reveals the suit is voice activated and scott tries to cover carsons mouth
>the whirlwind busts the contained in a huge gust, scott and hope shrink to buy themselves time on the fall. Hope going to full size and shrinking to catch scott.
> the tornado is over phoenix and ross and his copters are forced to land.
>scott feels like the only way to stop carson is to get big and grab him again
>hope tells him not to, but she will
>hope goes giant.
>homage to attack of the 50 foot woman as hope is fighting a tornado sprial of size destruction over a freeway and leading into the city.
>scott works with hawkeye for a way to shut the suit down, fixing his EMP arrowed that stalled it before. Hope needs to grab him and hold him still, which is not easy to do as he whirls and create vacuums and gusts.
>hawkeye eventually makes the shot and the suit stops. Janet goes back down to normal size and flies him away
>ross tries to back in the air to follow but scott and hawkeye made sure their helicopters cant take off

>they get the suit off carson, shrink it, and crush it. They leave carson tied up at a police station
>luis is the van saying how crazy it all was and how they were like, wow, and then they did this and that
>scott looks worried and notes that it was a big deal and will be the news, how they were military aircraft and that wont look good for the vigilante side of things.
>hope comforts him, but tells her to never take off that mask, that if anyone found out, she'd be in as much as trouble as he is.
>barton says he's working on that end too. They all thank each other.

>scott gets back to his apartment with luis and sees all the negative news about the ant-man and the wasp attack in phoenix. There's destruction and certainly a toll
>scott goes to pstons house, this time, as himself and watches from afar. Cassie is happy playing with Paxton and Maggie.
>scott gets a moment with cassie and tells him how right and wrong are hard sometimes. She's excited, but doesn't want cassie to think he's cool cause of the crazy things does, she tells her that her mom is right, thre's a right way and wrong to do things

>pym has been working on the ultron heads. They're talking about different realms and portals and how janet could easily be alive and saved.
>pym is working on the old ant-man suit. modifying it as a means to go to the quantum realm
>they've been experimenting sending ants with cameras to a sub-atomic level
>they talk about the human mind getting lost and why scott didn't, the echoing voice of his daughter helped ground him to his reality
>Ultron really feels he has grown and respect pym as a foster father much more than his original parents
>pym still does not trust him to give him a body or network access
>ultron suggests sending him to the quantum realm, that pym has used his particles too much it could be detrimental to him to go to the quantum realm himself

>Hope and scott are on a date and their talking about their roles as heroes. Their responsibility to protect people, that carson had to be stopped but at what cost?
>there's some goofy dialogue about quiting and not telling pym about possibly registering with the accord
>they have a genuine date too with a playful back and forth

>I've never read a screenplay and have no idea how it works.

>Ross is questioning carson about cross and pym particles, the suit and hydra. There is talk about that kind of power really defending the world in the face potential threats. That they never know when some mad titan may come knocking on the door
>carson and ross seem to see eye to eye, and carson says the research was already done, corrupted files on pym and cross particles exist, but need to be recovered
>ross says he knows someone who could such a thing and he seems quite bored lately, cutting to Zemo in his cell

>hope is pretty enamoured with her fame. She uses the suit in her off time and makes appearances and saves people, even though every time it makes the news. Continuing to report her as an unlicensed enhanced persons.
>her father is oblivious to this. They're both caught up in their work.
>Hope feels isolated from scott as he still is trying so hard to make everyone he knows happy, cassie, pym, luis, and herself, but she's enver felt happier

>pym and ultron think it's time to be reunited with janet. Pym delves into the quantum realm, it should protect him. Ultrons face starts to laugh.

>scott is trying to balance his work life with cassie and still toys with the idea of being ant-man, but doesn't take the public criticism well
>hope calls scott worried she hasn't seen in father in a day or two
>the two begin to search and shrink down for a hidden door of pyms. Using the ants to dig and search for a passage way.
>the two eventually find their way into his lab area with the ultron server, they recognize him and talk to him
>ultron explains how is powerless and could be stopped simply by turning him off, but he knows where pym is.

>carson and zemo after decrupting old files determine janet went sub-atomic, Ross and they are excited as this means there is a suit with pym particles there. Carson never had access to pym particles and only cross particles.

>Hope and Scott and determing waht to do, as ultron explains he is in the quantum realm, but sent him in a dangerous way. That he sent pym into the quantum realm with an excess of energy, pym needed an extra field to protect him and opening the portal again, for either direction will be like opening a shaken up soda, it will explode out into our world

>carson is working with scientists to go sub-atomic and back to get janets suit, with no knowledge of ultrons trap, they trigger it. A spiraling rippled of energy flies above them tearing a hole in the the dimensions as a large opening tears its way across the san francisco bay

>as hope scott and ultron are debating what to do or even trust each other, they hear this. Scott grabs an ultron head and they see outside to all this strange stuff spilling out from the sky into the bay.

>Ultron professes he had nothing to do with this, and scott and hope think it must be carson. Creatures spill out and struchures are getting closer and closer to the bridge and the city.
>Scott drops the ultron head on the lawn and as pym and hope suit up
>they get to the bay and it's a mess over things, the quantum realm clouds and a couple monsters
>they land on top of a tower of the golden gate bridge. An orange ring appears and out walks dr.strange.
>He introduces himself and see's what an issue they're having.
>they dicuss the issue of getting all the clutter back, and saving pym. Hope begins to fly towards the portal

>cut the ultron head on pyms lawn, which uses a mass of ants to move it away

>scott goes big and has a struggle from shrinking and growing as he tries to put the weird struchures back in the portal while also evading a monster
>dr.strange is assisting as well using magic

>hope makes her way into the quantum realm and finds her father and mother.
>Hope arrives its as if Pym just got there and so did Janet.
>pym says he knew it was a one way trip, and that janet has been here too long and that pym has used his particles too much. Janet is proud of her daughter

>Hope leaves the portal and signals to strange to close it, as giant scott is grabbing a couple creatures and throwing them back in.

>Dr.strange, and them thank each other for the help. Saying they should really consider joining the avengers, stark isn't all bad and after the recent deaths of black widow and falcon they could use the help

>ross is disappointed in what carson could accomplish, the public is now praising ant-man and the wasp as they helped save san francisco

>after all is said and done Luis is dropped off Hope and Scott from his van and there's a birthday party at Paxtons house. It's for cassie, and Scott says "it's a little different, Im invited this time" and he looks at an invitation written by her
>hope introduces herself to cassie. Maggie still kind of gives scott a werid look. Scott tells Cassie that he doesn't do the ant-man thing anymore. Cassie says she saw him save the city and Scott says "actually, that was her dad" and gives all the praise to pym
>scott says he just wants to lay low, but not that low.

>the final shot is of the ultron head has been carried to a shack like location, where the ants are building him a new body

get the fuck out of here. No way marvel would cough up this much cash to have this many avengers together in a non avengers film in such big roles.

>that many avengers
>literally 1

uh....

hawkeye and yes im counting meme doctor

as much as i enjoyed ant-man i really wish they'd stop referencing the mcu in this. makes the plot incoherent with all these one liner references like SEE, WE'RE PART OF THE MCU. Ant-man works as a separate entity on its own

can you give me the best quips from this script?

Dr strange is going to be on both thor and ant-man? unrealistic

Makes sense to use your contracted actors on your weekest part of the feanchise. Both hawkeye and strange are popular and will put meat in the seats. Bringing back zemo and ultron to build them up will be nice too.

>recent deaths of black widow and falcon
come on now.

So the plot is essentially microverse tomfuckery with the added flair of Ultron being a major element? Not going to read the whole thing but it sounds exciting.

The MCU is actually starting to feel dynamic and comic book-y now. That is if OP is telling the truth.

That's a lot to read, can I get a quick rundown?

I just ctrl+f'd Ultron and kept hitting enter personally.

Why would you risk your job over the worst Marvel movie?

Ant-Man is more popular than both Hawkeye and Strange, my dude.

Ant-Man was easily a top 5 Marvel movie. Second best origin after Iron Man, at the very least.

>scott thinks bineg ant-man is a bad influence on his daughter
>hawkeye team up
>the bad guy from part 1 fucks with cross particles and becomes whirlwind
>wasp goes big
>ant-man and wasp are vigilantes
>pym uses ultron to find janet in the quantum realm
>ross, zemo and carson trigger ultrons trap
>big microverse mess in SF bay
>dr.strange shows up to help
>pym and janet stay in microverse
>scott tells cassie he stopped being antman to be a better role model for her

>Zemo reappearing in an Ant-Man movie of all things
Ya blew it.

Let alone Dr Strange being in it which sounds unlikely.

why is this bad? this reflects real comicbook arcs. sometimes random supes DO just show up cause they ARE superheroes

I actually didn't know there was a board for comic book movies, I mean if someone wants to post it over there, Im cool with it

So what's with Falcon and Widow dying? That's the only part that makes this seem unbelievable.

Avatar turned out to be 80% correct iirc, months before it came out. Interstellar as well. Both I got from Sup Forums. Sometimes they are right, guy.

This.

It all sounded pretty good to great, and then it got too good to be with both Falcon AND Widow being dead.

It did aptly suggest Tony is in space with the Guardians. Like its in between Infinity movies.

Marvel/Disney will never kill a character. They will certainly never kill a black and a female.

They left it out as a decoy to see what gets leaked.
Congratulations, you're probably fucked.

My guess is this, no way theyd even need to know this info, that line can be done in post, no way peyton reed knows who dies. Even still it would be too secret to put in a script, has to be decoy info

>Dr.strange, and them thank each other for the help. Saying they should really consider joining the avengers, stark isn't all bad and after the recent deaths of black widow and falcon they could use the help
>>ross is disappointed in what carson could accomplish, the public is now praising ant-man and the wasp as they helped save san francisco
>>after all is said and done Luis is dropped off Hope and Scott from his van and there's a birthday party at Paxtons house. It's for cassie, and Scott says "it's a little different, Im invited this time" and he looks at an invitation written by her
>>hope introduces herself to cassie. Maggie still kind of gives scott a werid look. Scott tells Cassie that he doesn't do the ant-man thing anymore. Cassie says she saw him save the city and Scott says "actually, that was her dad" and gives all the praise to pym
>>scott says he just wants to lay low, but not that low.
>>the final shot is of the ultron head has been carried to a shack like location, where the ants are building him a new body
ALL OF THIS

WAT

>the final shot is of the ultron head has been carried to a shack like location, where the ants are building him a new body

>ultron head

>can I get a quick rundown?

Nobody here is your dude braindead, the fact is Antman can have a bigger boost with more hero characters in it

Of fucking course Peyton would know. Directors don't go into these things blind and hope not to step on toes

It happens a lot, why would they tell reed two characters are dead? they write these things and tweak them. Why give out secret info? Asking to use a character and getting a "no" is good enough. There is 0 reason for major spoilers to be given out. Even if reed knows, why put it in the script as throw away lines? Maybe scott didnt know, but still, this a dumb way to do it. Reed would write placeholder dialogue, but i still think it is suspect.
