'Ant-Man and the Wasp' Gets an 'Avengers: Infinity War' Tie-In TV Spot

Marvel Studios has released a new TV spot bringing together its two summer blockbuster films, Avengers: Infinity War and Ant-Man and the Wasp.

The video juxtaposes the all-out, climactic action of Avengers: Infinity War with the relative size and scope of Ant-Man and the Wasp to humorous effect. The ad begins with footage from Avengers: Infinity War and cuts hard into Scott Lang complaining about his tiny desk to Luis in Ant-Man and the Wasp.

Check out the video above.

Here's the official synopsis for Ant-Man and the Wasp:

"Scott Lang is grappling with the consequences of his choices as both a superhero and a father. Approached by Hope van Dyne and Dr. Hank Pym, Lang must once again don the Ant-Man suit and fight alongside the Wasp. The urgent mission soon leads to secret revelations from the past as the dynamic duo finds itself in an epic battle against a powerful new enemy."

Ant-Man and the Wasp is directed by original Ant-Man director Peyton Reed. Returning cast from the original Ant-Man include Paul Rudd as Scott Lang, Evangeline Lilly as Hope van Dyne, and Michael Douglas as Hank Pym. The film will also introduce some new stars to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, including Michelle Pfeiffer as Janet van Dyne, Laurence Fishburne as Doctor Bill Foster, Hannah John-Kamen as Ghost, Randall Park as Agent Jimmy Woo, and Walton Goggins as Sonny Burch.

Ant-Man and the Wasp is hitting theaters between the releases of Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers 4, giving it a special place in Marvel's release schedule.

"Put yourself in our positions two years ago," Avengers writer Stephen McFeely told Buzzfeed. "We're looking at a blank wall, and it says Avengers 3, Ant-Man and [the] Wasp, Captain Marvel, Avengers 4. So there are four big shoeboxes, and we're responsible for the bookends. As we're going through deciding what we want to do, we have these two shoeboxes in the middle that you can either look at as burdens or opportunities.

"My hope is the conversation you and I will have a year from now, you'll have a sense of the choices we've made over the course of an entire year of Marvel movies. There's a relationship between them all."
