ANT-MAN AND THE WASP Star Hannah John-Kamen Discusses Her Role As The Villainous Ghost
Details on Marvel's Ant-Man and the Wasp are still scarce, especially when it comes to the role of the villain, Ghost. Now, Hannah John-Kamen has briefly talked about how it feels to be a part of the film.
With the release of Marvel’s Avengers: Infinity War fast approaching, Ant-Man and the Wasp has, apart from its first trailer, largely flown under the radar - but while at the premiere for Ready Player One, Hannah John-Kame, who will be portraying the villain Ghost, briefly spoke about her upcoming role.
“I always say a character from a comic book is a character from a comic book, and as an actor, you're lifting it off the page. You're the one who's creating and giving it life," the Marvel star told Entertainment Tonight, when asked how it feels to play a gender-swapped character. Kamen then capped off this topic by expressing her desire to see more female characters: “Badass, kickass women, let's keep seeing some more."
Finally, the actress discussed the reaction to her character so far: “The reaction has been excitement and anticipation and that's exactly how I feel. I'm like, 'Right, let's see this, let's do this'."
Though she’s is not the first female villain in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, John-Kamen will be starring in the first MCU film to have a female hero (The Wasp) headlining a movie. Then there is Brie Larson’s Captain Marvel film which is coming next year, and is the MCU's first female solo film.
So,it sounds like the star’s desire to see more strong female characters may be coming to fruition.
From the Marvel Cinematic Universe comes Ant-Man and The Wasp, a new chapter featuring heroes with the astonishing ability to shrink. 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 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 the past.
