Evangeline Lilly Preferred Filming Ant-Man Over Ant-Man and The Wasp

Fans were very happy when Evangeline Lilly's Hope Van Dyne was able to spread her wings (ha!) during Ant-Man and The Wasp. Hope's character was more fleshed out and was able to kick more butt than in the first movie, where her only action scene was punching Scott Lang in the face. Most people would assume that Lilly liked filming the sequel more but that is not the case.

During Fan Expo Canada (via FTW vs WTF) Lilly revealed that she preferred filming her scenes in Ant-Man over Ant-Man and The Wasp for one simple reason; she can be controlling. The Lost actress revealed that she liked being able to have most of the control over her character in the first, whereas in the sequel she has to share Hope with stunt doubles.

It's a surprising, yet funny reason for her to prefer playing as Hope in Ant-Man since the heroine is much more prominent in the sequel. She not only shares the title name with her co-lead but also gets to participate in a number of entertaining fight scenes, particularly the ones with Ghost. This is definitely a shocking answer but it's nice seeing the actress be honest.

Ant-Man and The Wasp will be coming to hit Blu-ray and digital services soon.
