Over the summer, Marvel Studios officially ended Phase 2 of their Cinematic Universe, with the successful launch of Ant-Man. While the Walt Disney Studios distributed project generated nearly half a billion in box office revenue, Marvel is already planning a sequel.
With New York Comic-Con currently going on, the studio has revealed that the second installment, Ant-Man and the Wasp, will be hitting theaters July 6, 2018. Scott Lang will be making an appearance next spring in Captain America: Civil War; however Black Panther will now move up to February 16, 2018, while Captain Marvel will be pushed back to March 8, 2019.
