With the next film in Marvel’s Ant-Man series on the way, Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, fans are excited to see how the story unfolds. As such, there’s plenty of speculation regarding the large cast of characters involved with the film’s story. This includes actor William Jackson Harper, who was recently revealed to have signed on for a role in the film. Now it looks like the Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania role he’s acquired might’ve just been revealed.
This information comes via insider Daniel Richtman. He claims that William Jackson Harper has been cast as none other than the character “Quaz.” He further describes this character as “a telepath who is a part of a rebel group against Kang.” Now you may be wondering if Quaz could possibly be based on an existing Marvel comic book character.
Indeed, there is a character named Quasar aka Wendell Vaughn. And, while it’s possible that this is the character William Jackson Harper has signed on to play, Daniel Richtman isn’t so sure. In fact, he’s quite positive that Quaz is an entirely new character created just for the film. Of course, this should still be considered a rumor and thus taken with a grain of salt. But given how the MCU loves to incorporate brand-new characters on occasion – it certainly seems like a strong possibility.
Hopefully we’ll have more details soon. In the meantime, the film is only a few months away from hitting theaters. This means it won’t be long before we have our confirmation and learn what secrets this film has in store for fans of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. And with both Kang the Conqueror and the Quantum Realm involved, there will certainly be at least a few surprises.
Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania was directed by Peyton Reed from a screenplay written by Jeff Loveness. The confirmed cast for the film includes Paul Rudd, Evangeline Lilly, Michael Douglas, Michelle Pfeiffer, Kathryn Newton, and Jonathan Majors.
Fans will be able to see Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania in theaters on February 17, 2023. Stay tuned to ScreenGeek for additional updates on the highly-anticipated MCU blockbuster as we have them.
