ANT-MAN AND THE WASP: QUANTUMANIA Star Evangeline Lilly Shares Beach Workout Video As She Preps For MCU Return

Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania star Evangeline Lilly has taken to Instagram to reveal that she's once again prepping to play Hope Van Dyne, sharing some intense workout photos and videos. Take a look...

Evangeline Lilly first played Hope Van Dyne in 2015's Ant-Man, but finally got the chance to suit up three years later in Ant-Man and The Wasp. However, that action-heavy role took its toll on the actress, and she's now opened up about her lengthy recovery and training for the upcoming Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania

"After two years of illness, injury and slow and gentle recovery, it is time, once again, for me to turn my sights back to Wasp," she says in the posts below. "Quantumania here I come...even if I have to hobble to get there!" 

She later added: "I am so grateful that he [Eric Goodman] will hopefully help me be able to do justice to this epic heroine one more time."

With these comments comes a glimpse into the work that Lilly is doing in order to bring The Wasp back to the big screen, and that includes a beachside workout video. 

The actress is clearly putting a lot of effort into making sure she's ready to play Hope when shooting begins later this year. However, it's hard to say whether Lilly will want to continue beyond that if the past two years have been spent recovering from her last Marvel Cinematic Universe appearance. 

We're not trying to read too much into anything here, but she does talk about playing The Wasp "one more time," so perhaps this is where's Hope's story ends?

Got a feeling Ant Man and the gang will be stuck in Chronopolis. Hence the Quantumania subtitle.

@Tpo81 - I didn't realize there was a distinctive pose one makes to "rip farts."

@Tpo81 - I was going to post a cheeky comment on the beach photo, but you've turned me off it.

I always thought this was a fake placeholder title and they were gonna reveal the actual title as “Ant-man, the wasp, and the young avengers” like the CA: Serpent Society fakeout they did before announcing civil war.

I hope she feels better than she did a few months ago. Both physically and mentally, remember she went pretty far off the deep end with her Corona fears.

Really excited for Ant-Man 3, while that franchise seems like the odd man out of the MCU, I stand firm that it's really fun and well made. It has its own unique branch in the universe and sticks to its guns. Not flavor of the month at all

@Blergh - If memory serves, I believe Lilly seemed to be afraid that Republicans would use Covid as an excuse to delay, cancel, or nullify elections. And while she was wrong that they would use Covid as the excuse, she wasn't far off the mark on the rest. It's been six months and we've had people trying to shoot up vote-counting centers, Trump trying to bribe and threaten the states into not certifying the vote, rioters storm the U.S. capitol to stop the electoral college certification, and even now Arizona has given the ballots over to a lunatic organization (probably against federal law) to try to overturn or cast doubt on Trump's loss.

If she was on the Titanic warning about a comet sinking the boat, she'd be wrong about the cause but still right about the result.

Plus, when people clapped back at her about Covid, I think she responded by taking an immediate step back and stressing that people should be safe and help contain the spread: which is what her first message downplayed.

@Blergh - I wonder if those Corona Fears were a public relations induced 180 after she came out so hard against social distancing in the earliest stages of this thing. Remember, Sophie Turner took it to Lily HARD after her soccer practice remarks and Lily came VERY close to getting canceled. Gotta wonder if all this newfound caution is actually face-saving penance.
