Arrrrrgggghh . Evangeline Lilly took to Instagram to reveal the newfangled hairstyle she ’s sporting for her persona as Hope Van Dyne in Ant - Man . I think we can safely strike that regardless of Lilly ’s character ’s name , she will be the de facto Janet Van Dye / Wasp of the Marvel cinematic cosmos .
Here ’s another shot of Lilly ’s ‘ do :

Obviously , Lilly will be Janet in all but name and relation to Hank Pym . So why am I still bitter about this ?
I judge it ’s because I think the name does matter . The Marvel Cinematic Universe poorly needs more female superheroes , and I ’m bummed how it ’s downgraded Janet Van Dyne from Avengers co - founder to romanticistic interest in Ant - Man . But moreover , even if Lilly ’s Hope does kick ass , what if girls ( or boys ) want to see more of her adventures ? Well , then they ’re screwed , because comics - sassy Hope only show up as a villainess in the non - canon A - Next series . There was a great opportunity for Marvel to draw in new female comic sports fan here , and I cerebrate they ’ve made it much more difficult than it need to be .
Maybe a kindly comic store employee will excuse the Janet / Hope / Wasp billet to them and direct them to Janet ’s stories , but I think we all love that’shardly a given .
