Did Laurence Fishburne Just Spoil A Big Ant-Man and The Wasp Twist?


As the theatrical release for Ant-Man and The Wasp approaches, more and more fans have been wondering how the events of the upcoming Marvel film will connect to Avengers 4 as well as other plot details including the identity of the villainous Ghost (played by Hannah John-Kamen). Now, Laurence Fishburne, who plays Bill Foster, a.k.a. Goliath, may have just revealed the film's big twist.

It looks like the big plot twist for Ant-Man and The Wasp has something to do with the identity of Ghost - a mysterious villain we've only seen a few times in the trailers until now.

Speaking to Marvel Entertainment at Ant-Man and The Wasp's Red Carpet premiere, he revealed the secret identity of Ghost, and how that fits into the movie's themes.

"I have this sort of surrogate daughter, this character called Ghost played by Hannah John-Kamen who is incredible, and we sorta have a father-daughter thing going on."

With Fishburne describing Ghost as a "surrogate daughter", the truth may be more complicated than what he made it seem. Besides, Fishburne was asked a very probing question about how the theme of family informs his character's arc.

Synopsis:

From the Marvel Cinematic Universe comes a new chapter featuring heroes with the astonishing ability to shrink: "Ant-Man and The Wasp." In the aftermath of "Captain America: Civil War," Scott Lang grapples with the consequences of his choices as both a Super Hero and a father. As he struggles to rebalance his home life with his responsibilities as Ant-Man, he's confronted by Hope van Dyne and Dr. Hank Pym with an urgent new mission. Scott must once again put on the suit and learn to fight alongside The Wasp as the team works together to uncover secrets from their past.
