Walton Goggins joins Ant-Man and the Wasp!
Deadline reports that America’s favorite sultry sassy southern man, Walton Goggins, has signed on to appear in Marvel’s Ant-Man and the Wasp! Goggins’ role is still under wraps, but given his previous work in playing antagonists in the likes of Justified, Django Unchained, and the upcoming Tomb Raider, we’re guessing he might be going toe-to-toe with the titular heroes. Marvel Studios is scheduled to host a 90-minute panel at San Diego Comic-Con this Saturday in Hall H starting at 5:30 PM PT, so more details may arrive at that time.
