Peyton Reed breaks down the kitchen fight scene in Ant-Man and The Wasp

Last Updated on August 5, 2021

ANT-MAN AND THE WASP is now officially playing in theaters and audiences seem to be having quite a lot of fun with it for the most part. Arriving just several months after AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR, the much lighter ANT-MAN sequel gives us a little bit of a Marvel Cinematic Universe palette cleanser after the dark events of INFINITY WAR. Our own Chris Bumbray enjoyed the film, calling it "slick and fun" despite it being a lower key MCU flick in his review. "The Ant-Man series almost plays like a breath of fresh air given how weighty BLACK PANTHER and INFINITY WAR were and, even if it’s unlikely to become a major favorite the way those will, Marvel's got this stuff down to a science," Bumbray said. Director Peyton Reed stopped by Vanity Fair recently for the latest installment of Notes on a Scene, where he broke down the fast-paced fight scene between Wasp (Evangeline Lilly) and a group of baddies in a kitchen. Check it out above!

The official synopsis for ANT-MAN AND THE WASP:

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 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 the past.
